Start from an unnamed car park on the left side of the road, about one kilometre after the Sainte-Victoire house in Saint-Antonin-sur-Bayon. This car park is located 50 metres after the Marbrière car park and 400 metres before the Coquille car park.
(S/E) From the car park, facing Sainte-Victoire, take the path that branches off to the left and heads north-east towards the cliff (no markings). After 600 metres, you will come to a path (not marked on the map). Continue straight ahead and pass a few carved stone blocks to reach a crossroads.
(1) Follow the brown markings coming from the left and continue straight up. After a few metres heading north, the path turns left (west) and then right towards La Marbrière. Just before this, a cairn invites you to turn left to go around it from above. Once you reach a flat area, the path continues, then crosses a small north-facing rocky outcrop (Pas du Clapier) and ends at a large cairn on a flat section.
Leave the green-marked path on the left, which climbs steeply towards the rock face, and continue straight ahead on the brown-marked path. After a series of ascents, descents and flat sections at the foot of the cliff, leave the path marked by a cairn on the right.
(2) Continue to the left; the path climbs northwards then veers north-east to reach the Barthélémy Baudino Refuge.
(3) Go around it on the right and follow the markings, which cross a rocky area and then begin a descent along a stony path that is not very comfortable.
(4) When you reach a junction marked by a cairn, near a small rocky outcrop (view below towards the Genty farm), leave the path on the right and continue left for about 100m.
Take the small path marked in black on the left, which climbs towards the rock face. The path often crosses scree and a few rocky sections. Pay close attention to the markings, which can be difficult to find at times. After a final rocky section, the markings lead to the ridges and join theGR®9.
(5) Continue to the right on the red and white markings ofthe GR®9. At times, it is possible to leave the trail to get closer to the cliff and enjoy the view, 
caution. A short descent equipped with a chain allows you to cross a small rocky outcrop, then the trail continues to a small pass marked by a cairn. The trail turns right onto the southern slope and joins a crossroads.
(6) Leave theGR® trail on your left, which climbs up the ridges towards Pic des Mouches, and take a path that descends to the right, marked with red dots. Further down, a rock marks the junction with the red trail coming from the right; continue downhill on the common red trail. A passage equipped with chains allows you to climb down a final rocky outcrop and then descend towards the chapel of the Hermitage of Saint-Ser.
(7) Pass under the porch and reach a viewpoint below the site. Turn right until you reach the next crossroads 30 metres further on.
(8) Continue right on the brown trail towards the Refuge Baudino. Continue on this almost flat path for about 600 metres, then leave the black trail on your right. Continue for 100 metres until you reach a crossroads with a cairn.
(4) Leave the brown markings on your right and continue straight ahead on the slightly descending unmarked path. At the next crossroads, leave the path on the left and turn right to climb up towards the Pas de la Torque (not marked on the map). About a hundred metres higher up, leave a small path on the right that is not very visible and not marked on the map, and continue climbing to the left.
(9) When you reach a viewpoint marked by a large cairn, turn right (north) onto the fairly steep path that leads to the foot of a rocky outcrop. Try to follow the trail, which is not always clearly visible among the rocks. Further up, it turns left and leads to the Barthélémy Baudino Refuge.
(3) Find the brown marked trail that leaves from the left of the refuge and turns left 400 metres further down to reach a crossroads marked by a large cairn.
(2) Leave the brown markings on your right and take the unmarked path on the left that descends into the heath. After a wide left turn, this path continues and then descends more steeply to reach a crossroads.
(10) Turn right onto a path that heads due north and then veers left. A good kilometre further on, at a small 90° bend, leave the path on the right (not marked on the map).
(11) Continue left on the path through the pine trees, which continues with a track coming from the left and ends at the car park (S/E).
