Description of the walk

(S/E) From the school car park, take the D217 on the right towards Saint-André via the D217. Pass the sign for "En Massoun" on your right near a crucifix and find a path about 300 m further on between two rows of trees.

(1) Turn right onto this wide dirt track towards La Lubie farm. Go around it on the left.

(2) Continue straight ahead, passing the old mill in the hamlet of "En Jannet". The well-marked path passes along the Guerlin farm, turns left and arrives at a group of houses in the hamlet of "La Paguère".

(3) Then turn left towards Saint-André. At the stop sign, turn right, then almost immediately left, passing between the shelter and the church porch.
Continue along Route de Montiron, passing under the Laffitau farm on your left, and continue for about 100 metres.

(4) When you reach the crossroads, leave the wide path on the right and enter the field on the left. You will immediately see the start of the path on the left. Follow it as it climbs and winds pleasantly through the undergrowth before opening out into a field. Continue straight ahead to reach the tarmac road.

(5) Turn right and you will immediately find the path on your left that leads to the "Le Petit Carrau" farm.
Follow this farm track which winds its way between cultivated fields. Follow the yellow markers.

(6) Pass under the farm "Le Gathan" and you will come to a well-marked path. On the left, you will find the path that climbs towards "Petit Carrau". At the farm, turn right onto the end of the tarmac road and descend the dirt track towards the Ruisseau du Herran stream.

(7) Cross the stream and, after about 100 metres, take the path on the left and follow it to the tarmac road. You will see the Fontaine Saint-Loup fountain on the right in the middle of the field.

(8) Turn left to return to Aurimont (S/E).

The route is poorly maintained, as you have to walk through tall grass with the risk of encountering insects or snakes.
The route is not particularly interesting except as a walk in the countryside.
