Depart from the Roubion car park, located near (north of) the church and town hall.
(S/E) Head north on the Vignols track. Follow this track to marker 256.
(1) Turn left and head up towards the Bois de Falcon. Please note that there are two marker posts numbered 256: an old one higher up and a new one that is more visible from the track. The new one indicates a better-defined path. Climb through the woods, which is quite steep for half an hour at a leisurely pace, on a well-defined path.
(2) You will arrive at a mountain bike marker numbered 4. Continue north-west on the path, which narrows, along the mountainside.
(3) Turn left at the hairpin bend and follow the path that leads to the Falcon ridge at marker 288.
(4) Turn right towards Col de la Couillole. Beautiful grassy areas on either side of the path provide a place to stop and enjoy the lovely view of the south-facing slope, the sheepfolds and the valley.
(5) Reach a track and take it to the left at the hairpin bend.
(6) Take a path that branches off to the right towards the hamlet of Falcon. Be careful, when you reach the houses, look for a grassy path on the left along the barriers. If you come to a kennel, you have gone too far. Go to marker 289 at the bottom of the hamlet.
(7) Follow the path to the right towards Roubion. Be careful, as there are two paths leading in this direction. Take the lower one, to the right of the marker. This well-maintained path passes in front of a small oratory, then under a via ferrata, before reaching the top of Roubion. Take the steps to return to the starting point (S/E).
