Park in the public car park at Hameau de Cal. If possible, park on the right-hand side of the trees so that your vehicle will be in the shade when you return in the afternoon.
(S/E) Head to the back of the car park where a sign indicates that it is not possible to reach Les Aiguières by car. Continue along this path to the dry river bed.
(1) Cross the dry riverbed and take the path on the right. Follow it until it rejoins the dry riverbed, cross the river and take the path that climbs to the right. Follow this path as it climbs, always taking the right-hand fork at each junction. You will reach a crossroads at the foot of Mont Lansac.
(2) This time, turn left onto a quieter path that offers some beautiful views. Follow it until you reach a small clearing.
(3) Look for the small path that disappears into the bushes at the bottom on the left. This will lead you to a trail that descends towards Les Petites Aiguières. Be careful, as this trail is quite steep until you reach the Cascades des Petites Aiguières waterfalls.
(4) After carefully admiring the view, head back in the opposite direction towards the river, which you will need to follow. Once again, be careful: there is no path here and you will have to jump from stone to stone to walk up the river, sometimes risking getting your feet wet. Proceed with the utmost caution so as not to slip down to the bottom of the valley.
Look for a small path that climbs up to the left of the river. This will take you into the woods on a fairly peaceful path between the trees. You will come to a crossroads with several directions.
(5) Take the path on the right between two large trees. Follow the river to reach the Grandes Aiguières.
(6) Return in the opposite direction to the previous crossroads.
(5) Turn right and you will soon reach a wider track.
(7) Turn right onto it, then leave it on the left at the next bend. Continue downhill through the forest until you reach the bridge over the Ruisseau de l'Argensol.
(8) Cross the bridge and turn left to follow the right bank of the stream. At the edge of the woods, you will find a Y-shaped crossroads.
(9) Take the small path on the right that winds its way up to the car park below the Château d'Allègre.
(10) Cross theD37 with caution and take the path opposite to reach Château d'Allègre. Continue on to reach the D37 again and another car park.
(11) Cross the D37 again with caution. Follow the marked path down to the hamlet of La Bégude.
(12) Turn left onto the Défilé d'Argensol path. Follow the gentle climb back to the Y-junction you passed earlier.
(9) Continue along the stream for a few more metres, then turn right and cross the stream. Continue uphill until you reach the highest point.
(13) Continue straight ahead and begin the final descent back to the initial crossroads.
(1) Follow the initial route for a few metres to return to the car park in the hamlet of Cal (S/E).
