The route starts in the village of Mont Dore; follow the signs to the car park at the start of the Mont-Dore Ascent trail.
The entire route is signposted with small signs and equipped with steps and non-slip surfaces...
(S/E) The path starts to the right of the sign; head into the vegetation, and after about ten metres, turn left. The climb begins. The start is in the shade of the vegetation, but very quickly the trees thin out and you find yourself in full sun. Follow the main path, which is equipped with steps and signposted. On your right, you can take short breaks to enjoy the scenery. Continue the ascent to a small pass, where you will find marker post 1.
(1) Continue to the left to climb further; the slope becomes steeper... The steps are a welcome relief.
A large cairn, along with the markings and facilities, confirm that you are on the right track. Climb further to reach a red and white post. Continue in the same direction; the vegetation becomes a little sparser; dark, very heavy stone, rich in iron, comes into view.
(2) Once you reach the top of this short climb, the landscape flattens out; follow the path. To the left, you can see the summit of Mont Dore, topped with an antenna. Head towards it once you reach marker 3.
(3) Turn left. If you go straight on, you’ll end up on a track that will take you down the other side. Just one more short climb to reach your destination.
(4) Once at the top, enjoy the view, then head back down the same route.
