After the Barollière holiday centre on the left coming from the town of Saint-Paul-en-Jarez, park either near the glass recycling bin or along the road leading to the hamlet of Bayolle-le-Haut.
(S/E) Take the dirt track that climbs up next to the house, heading due east. On the right, you can see the hamlet of Bayolle-le-Haut below. The path zigzags and becomes rocky in places. It climbs slightly to the Col de Trente Sous.
(1) There is a bench at the pass. The view stretches as far as the Col de L'Oeillon. A path on the left leads back to Saint-Paul-en-Jarez. Take the path on the right, heading due south, and follow it to the next intersection.
(2) At this intersection, you will find theGRP® Tour du Parc sign. The path on the left leads to La Terrasse en Dorlay, opposite towards Chavanol and on the right towards the hamlet of Bayolle le Haut (return path). Take the path opposite towards Chavanol. The path widens and climbs slightly. At the next fork, turn right. When you leave the woods, you will see a field on your right. Continue to the next intersection.
(3) At this intersection, leave theGRP® and turn left towards the north-east. Continuing straight ahead will take you towards Chavanol. On the left, the path climbs slightly between the trees to a spot on the right where the trees have been cut down. Stay on the left-hand path. Cross a path junction.
(4) At the next intersection, take the path on the left. It passes through a forest of tall thorny trees and joins the wide GRP® path. Continue to the right towards the fork in the path you took on the way there.
(2) Take the path on the left which descends towards the hamlet of Bayolle-le-haut.
(5) You will reach a farm after a sharp right-hand bend. From there, follow the road through the hamlet to the car park (S/E).
