From the centre of Mouriès, take Rue du Temple. At the end of this street, turn right (Chemin du Mas de Barrelet) and at the end (at a T-junction with cypress trees), turn left. Park when the road is no longer tarmac.
(S/E) Take the path that continues from the tarmac road.
(1) After 150 metres, turn right onto a path (less well marked) that climbs up into the heath. This path winds its way through olive trees until it reaches a barrier.
(2) Just after the barrier, take the path on the left and follow it.
At the crossroads, continue straight ahead.
(3) When you reach the car park, continue straight ahead to the edge of the canal and then follow the path that runs alongside it.
After passing the greenhouses (on the other bank), followed by a green shed with a red roof (also on the other bank), follow a small descent from the canal that causes some turbulence (on the other bank, there is a hedge of conifers).
(4) Shortly before a bend that is almost at a right angle, take a path that starts on the right in a gap in the hedge running alongside the canal (on the other bank, about ten metres further on, there is a sluice gate feeding an irrigation canal). This path bends to the left immediately afterwards, then shortly afterwards joins another path. Turn right, then shortly afterwards, at a three-way junction, take the grassier path on the left (there is a sign at this three-way junction). The grassy path joins another path that is perpendicular to it.
(5) Turn left, then 100 metres further on, at a three-way junction, turn right (the other path is not very clear and is quickly blocked by a wire fence). Continue straight ahead until you reach the foot of a hill and walk along the left side of the hill.
(6) You will come to another three-way junction, with a group of small trees between the two paths. Take the path on the right. Further on, the path passes between two bumps and then descends. Take the path on the right. You should see a large conifer with a yellow mark on its trunk. Continue along the path until you reach a crossroads with several paths, one of which is blocked by a barrier to prevent cars from entering.
(2) A sign indicates two directions; take the left one towards Mouriès.
Go through the barrier and follow the path down the slope, which soon winds its way through the olive trees. Continue downhill until you reach a larger path.
(1) Turn left and return to the starting point (S/E).
