Access: if you’re coming from the north via Brousses, you’ll need to walk through the whole village to reach the car park behind the cemetery. If you’re coming from the west via Montolieu or Aragon, you’ll find the car park before you even enter the village.
(S/E) The walk begins by heading up the road and turning right. You cross the whole village. You pass in front of the church and continue to a fork where you see a statue of the Virgin Mary. You go down the road on the right, Rue des Graves, which you follow to the bottom of the descent.
(1) There are two bridges here. Between the two bridges, there is a track leading off to the left. Take this track and, twenty metres further on, a path opens up to the right. Take this path, which climbs up to the ridge. It winds through the undergrowth alongside the Ruisseau du Moureau, a fairly deep but almost always dry stream.
Two fords take you across the dry streams. You arrive in a field and immediately turn left to continue through a less dense wood. You come to a tarmac road; take it to the right. Where the road turns sharply right to head back down towards the village, leave it and continue straight on along a track that is passable but unpaved.
(2) Take the first path on the right; it runs through low, well-cleared woodland. At the first junction, turn left and after a few metres you’ll come to a track. Turn right onto it and follow it, ignoring the small paths to the right or left.
(3) Leave the main track to the right onto a chalky path that runs along the top of the cliff. You have a superb view of the village.
(4) Watch out for this barely visible fork. Leave the track for a path through the undergrowth that will take you to the edge of a field. Follow the edge of this field to its northern end. Take care not to miss the very narrow path branching off to the left (if you continue straight on along the main track, you will rejoin the route but miss the path running alongside the Trapel). Continue downhill to the right.
(5) You reach the stream and take a sharp right turn onto a narrow path that runs alongside the Trapel. This slightly steep path is very pleasant and well sheltered under the trees.
(6) The path leads out onto a meadow, which you cross diagonally to reach the ford over the Trapel, which can sometimes be a bit muddy. You head back up a wide grassy path to a tarmac road. Turn right onto it and you’ll reach the village. Go round the village via the first street on the left until you reach the church. Turn left and you’ll arrive at the cemetery (S/E).
