After passing through the village and taking Chemin de l'Aqueduc to its end, park in the large clearing on the left.
(DA) Go to the back of the car park. On the left, cross the small canal (often dry) to reach the entrance to the Cantarelles tunnel. Go through the tunnel. Continue along the path until you reach a crossroads.
(1) Turn right. Ignore the paths that branch off to the right. You will come to a wider path; take it to the left. After a few metres, turn right, then right again at the intersection.
(2) Turn left and continue south to reach a large path.
(3) Take it to the right. Continue along the path, which runs alongside a high-voltage power line. Turn right, ignoring the other paths that branch off. Follow this path for about 700 metres to the north-west. You will come to a wide, stony fork in the road.
(4) Leave the main road and turn right onto a path that climbs up to the mill. When you leave the mill, follow the path under the holm oaks. Ignore the paths branching off to the right and left. Walk alongside an olive grove until you reach the first houses of Saint-Bonnet-du-Gard.
(5) Turn right onto Chemin des Heath Basses. Follow the yellow markings southwards. Turn left to reach Chemin des Cigales. Turn left again, then right onto Chemin de la Pataute. After the left turn, leave the wide path and follow a trail on the right to reach a signpost.
(6) Go up to the left on the path, which climbs steeply. On the flat section, leave the marked path and turn left onto a faint path that winds along the edge of the scrubland. It then opens up to follow the ridge line with a few rocky sections. Go to the top of the hill and begin a rocky descent which, at the bottom, leads to a path that you should take to the left.
(7) Cross the tarmac road and climb up a stony path on the left. It leads to a track suitable for vehicles. Turn right, pass the concrete section and, in the bend before the reservoir, climb the steep slope. Turn right under the holm oaks and follow the ledge, without ever going downhill, to the northern end.
(8) Retrace your steps for about 50 metres and begin the descent to the left, south-east, on a faint trail. At the bottom, you will arrive near the railway line. The path runs roughly parallel to it. You will come to a fenced-in property with horses. Follow the fence. You will arrive at the pumping station
(7) Take the same path as on the way up. Go past the end of the path you came down and continue straight ahead for about 800 metres. Cross the olive groves.
(9) Go to the entrance of the Perrotte tunnel. Cross it (taller people should watch their heads). At the exit, follow the path that goes around the quarry to return to the car park (S/E).
