(2) At the next intersection, turn left onto the Route Forestière des Sagnes, heading towards the Col de Meyrand.
(3) Turn left onto Route Forestière du Pradas (towards Col de Meyrand). At the crossroads (altitude 1,440 m), continue straight ahead.
(4) After the descent, you will arrive near two buildings. Drive past them. Immediately, at the crossroads near the picnic tables, turn right to join the road to the pass.
(5) Cut across this road and turn slightly to your right to join a path that runs alongside a fence and leads to a wider path further on. Take this path on the left. At the next crossroads, take the path that climbs uphill. Leave the forest to arrive at a three-way junction.
(6) Turn right (towards Borne) for about 20 metres, then turn left onto the path that climbs uphill.
(7) At the next fork, on the ridge, continue straight ahead and ignore the path that branches off to the right. At the entrance to the woods, continue straight ahead.
(8) You will arrive at an area ravaged by fire. At the next intersection, ignore the path that branches off to the right and continue straight ahead. Then pass two paths that branch off to the right in a V shape and continue in the same direction.
(9) At the second hairpin bend, turn right and at the next intersection, turn sharply left. Pass a path on the left, veer right with the path and stay on it, heading east-northeast for about 2km on a flat section.
(10) Cross the Bouquet bridge over the Loubeyre stream. Enter the hamlet of Les Chambons and continue straight ahead, following the tarmac road.
(11) Cross a bridge and pass a picnic area. Continue straight ahead on the tarmac road, then turn right onto a path to join the D24 road.
(12) Turn left and follow it for 150 metres, then turn right onto the Serre de l'Ubac forest road.
(13) At a crossroads, ignore the three paths leading off to the right and take the Route Forestière du Cros du Cerf on the left.
(14) Cross a bridge. At the next intersection, ignore the path that branches off to the left, then a path that climbs to the right above the main path.
(15) Continue climbing by taking a path on the right that makes a sharp right turn. Pass above the sports hall, turn left to return to the starting point (S/E).
