If you’re coming from Cuxac-Cabardès or one of the surrounding villages, join the D562. Heading north, you’ll come to a junction with a sign for ‘Cuxac & Grand Bois Wind Farm’. There’s enough space there to park several cars.
(S/E) Start the walk by heading due east towards the arrow on the sign mentioned above. A wide, rather bumpy track will take you to the foot of the first wind turbine.
(1) Take the wide track on the left, which will take you past three wind turbines. Note the large red graphic on the second one – I couldn’t work out what it represented.
(2) Immediately after the third one, turn right at the T-junction. Follow this wide track, keeping to the right as you go round a wind turbine. Carry on straight ahead at the next junction where the tracks narrow, passing another wind turbine.
(3) Turn right at a right angle and carry on along this path, keeping to your left at the fork.
(4) At the next junction, head slightly to the left (though if you carry on straight ahead, you’ll also reach the next point!). Further on, keep to the right.
(5) Carry on to the left until you reach a tarmac road ahead, which you follow for about 200 metres. Leave the road to the right, into a field, and follow the row of trees on your right until you reach another road.
(6) Cross the ditch and cross this road with care. Head to the right and, a few metres further on, take the path to the left. Even though the path is a bit overgrown, keep to the right to avoid passing between the houses. Walk down to the Pousset stream and then back up to Les Augers.
(7) Walk between the two blocks of buildings and head up the tarmac road towards the north-west. At the first junction, carry straight on.
(8) At the second junction, where there is a very wide, well-maintained but unpaved track, turn right. Follow this track, which climbs gently, to the large car park at the foot of the ‘Wind Farm’ sign (S/E).
