Two possible starting points. Here we set off from the car park by the orientation table, but you can also park in the town centre of Montesquieu and start the walk at point 3.
Trail marked in yellow
(S/E) From the car park, turn left onto the small path that climbs up to the orientation table. You’ll have a panoramic view of the Pyrenees and the village of Montesquieu-Volvestre.
Turn left at the orientation table and follow the small path to the left of the closed gate, which runs alongside a hillock topped by an antenna. Turn right through the undergrowth, which leads back to the car park.
(1) From there, follow the grassy path to the right, running alongside a fence. When you reach the road, continue straight on to the end of the cul-de-sac. Follow the shaded path on the right to the road (D40).
(2) Turn right along the road and then right again (Chemin des Perdous). Continue straight on along the road, then along a shaded path that continues from it.
(3) At the road, turn right. Do not follow the yellow arrow pointing left, unless you wish to take the opportunity to visit the village centre with its church and the banks of the Arize. You will find an information panel about an old chapel.
The route first follows a tarmac road, then a grassy path which leads onto the main road. Take care. Turn right and continue straight on until you reach the car park by the orientation table on your right (S/E).
