Start from the car park at the top of the village. Green signposts. Start sign in the street in the hamlet of Fraisse.
(S/E) Head south, cross the D36E1 (take care) towards Lirou and ford the stream. After the ford, take the path opposite, which then turns left and comes to a fork.
(1) Turn right to follow a retention lake below.
(2) At the crossroads, follow the path on the right marked with DFCI signs, which are more visible than the green markings. Continue straight ahead until you reach a fork at the start of a right-hand bend, after passing two small huts on the left.
Follow the track on the left, which immediately joins another wide track at a hairpin bend (DFCI water tank). The dolmen is visible a few metres away. Cut across the heath to climb up to it.
(3) Then descend back down the path and continue straight ahead in a north-easterly direction. Then turn left onto the path to come out at a crossroads.
(4) Take the D36E1 road on the right until you reach the pumping station.
(5) Cross the road and take the path on the left that climbs between the vineyards. The path has almost disappeared into the vegetation and passes over the ruins of Camp Redon Castle on the right. Very steep climb.
(6) At the top of the climb, turn left to begin a circuit that allows you to see drystone shelters. The path curves to the right, skirting vineyards, and heads northeast. Continue to the junction with a wider paved road.
(7) Make a quick right-left turn to take the wide path that descends towards another slope. You will pass through heathland dotted with drystone shelters.
(8) At the next crossroads, you will arrive at the lime kiln below Puech des Cabanes. Take the path on the right that descends towards the village and leads to the D612 at the roundabout.
(9) Continue on the right towards the village. Pass in front of the former Museum of Simple Arts, which has moved to Puisserguier. Take the second street on the right and return to the car park where you started (S/E).
