From Saint-Pierre-d’Entremont (Isère), head up towards the Col du Cucheron via the D512. Pass through Les Vassaux then Les Cloîtres: park after the village; there are a few spaces available on the right-hand side of the road.
(S/E) Retrace your steps to enter the hamlet of Les Cloîtres, cross through it, then head straight up the slope along a path leading to a water reservoir.
(1) Turn left towards a mobile phone mast, then head north on level ground, following a track through the meadow (with gaps in the electric fence) and then a path through a hedge to Les Granges des Brots.
(2) Continue along the level path northwards to a fork. Head up to the right along a forest track which leads to another fork at an altitude of 1027 on the IGN map. There, a recent forest road makes a hairpin bend. Cut across this bend and immediately turn right onto the forest track which climbs steeply north-eastwards to a bend at an altitude of 1202 metres.
(3) Turn right and, a little further up, take the narrower forest track that climbs straight up the slope. After a steep climb, the terrain levels out as you reach the Feytolet ridge.
(4) Turn right to follow the path along the broad, gentle ridge due south, first through the forest, then across a mountain pasture to reach the clearly visible ridge opposite.
(5) Walk over the various humps at the top of the cliff to enjoy the views, then follow the south-western cliff down towards the Grande Labia to reach the hunter’s hut at the edge of the forest.
(6) Immediately after this, turn right into the forest to join the path leading up to the foot of the mountain pasture at the same level. Follow the path along the Feytolet ridge in the opposite direction.
(4) Turn left onto the steep path, with a few alternative routes halfway up (see track) to an altitude of 1202.
(3) Turn left to descend to the wide, recently built forest road, cut across its bend and immediately head down the path opposite leading to Granges Terrefort.
(7) Head south along the 4x4 track to Les Granges des Brots.
(2) Do not go downhill but continue along the level path through the hedge and then across the meadow, to the edge of the water tower.
(1) Head downhill, cross the village and head for the car park on the CD road above the hamlet (S/E).
