Departure from the village of Le Bonhomme, at the church car park (Route des Bagenelles RD 48).
(S/E) From the car park, go down the RD 48 to the junction with the RD 415. Turn left towards Colmar (Rue du 3ème Spahis Algériens) to pass in front of the church and continue to the town hall.
(1) At the town hall, turn right (start of the trails, Rue des Pierres Blanches). Follow the red rectangle signs towards Col du Calvaire via Tinfronce and climb up the grassy path opposite. At the end of the path, follow the road uphill to the left (Chemin de la Petite Montagne; red rectangle). At the next junction, turn right, following the yellow rectangle signs towards Col du Calvaire.
(2) After a few metres, leave the road and take a path on the left, marked with a yellow rectangle, towards Tinfronce (stony path between two fences). At the next intersection, take the path on the left uphill.
(3) At the crossroads, turn right onto the path towards Tinfronce (yellow rectangle). Continue straight ahead to the south-west. Cross a forest path and continue straight ahead (yellow rectangle). The path becomes a trail again. Cross several other trails and continue straight ahead.
(4) At the crossroads, turn left (east-southeast) and continue to Carrefour Duchesne (national cemetery).
(5) Follow the path opposite on the far left, marked with a red rectangle, towards Tête des Faux. Climb up, ignoring the paths on either side, and reach the summit of Tête des Faux, topped by a large cross.
(6) Continue down the path on the other side until you reach some ruins dating from the war and a badly damaged orientation table. Follow the red rectangular markings to the Roche du Corbeau.
(7) Then turn left downhill (still following the red rectangles) to arrive below the old German cable car station. Continue downhill to the Étang du Devin (peat bog pond).
(8) Pass in front of the old pumping station building and follow the signs for "gîte d'étape" (stopover lodge) (red rectangle).
(9) After the German military cemetery, turn left towards Le Bonhomme along the path.
(Do not pass the stopover lodge to avoid returning to the paved road). Leave a path coming from the right. At a fork (hunting tower), turn right downhill. Continue until you reach the crossroads you took on the way there.
(3) Then follow the route you took on the way there in the opposite direction and return to the church car park (S/E).
