District:
Park near the end of the tarmac road at Pré de l'Arc (D 528).
(S/E) Walk slightly uphill along the road or track.
(1) Take the path on the right which joins theGR® 549 andGR® de Pays Tour du Balcon des Sept Laux a little further up, which you will follow until you reach Habert d'Aiguebelle. On the way, you will pass Habert du Muret.
(2) Stay on theGR® 549 andGR® de Pays trails, which turn right. The path now climbs a little more steeply. The route is dominated by a high-voltage power line. Reach the Pas de la Coche and its lake.
(3) Leave theGR® 549 andGR® de Pays trails and the high-voltage power line here. Turn left onto theGR® 738 for a slightly wilder route. Reach the Pas de la Pierre du Pin.
(4) Leave the path that descends to the right and continue towards the Col de la Vache. Proceed at your own pace, depending on the condition of the terrain. For example, stop at the point where you have to cross the stream and where the path turns sharply to the east.
(5) Turn back to the Aiguebell fork.
(2) There are two options at this point:
- descend directly to the car park via the same route you took on the way up.
- or head for Habert d'Aiguebelle by turning right, as shown on the map.
(6) Head west on theGR® de Pays Tour du Balcon des Sept Laux. At the start, the path is a little difficult to see, but it soon turns into a beautiful trail. Follow it for a long way until you reach Pré de l'Arc.
(7) Change direction by turning completely left, heading generally south, and descend for a long way along the track to the car park (S/E).
