Fitness trail from the Cheires Hautes car park

Park at the Cheires Hautes car park at the foot of Puy de la Vache, along the D5.

(S/E) Cross the D5 road with caution and follow it to the right, taking the path that runs alongside it on the left.

(1) After about 800 m, turn left onto a forest path: this is the start of the fitness trail, which you should follow, following the red signs.

(2) At the first intersection, continue straight ahead (north).

(3) At the next intersection, turn right at a sharp angle.

(4) Take the first path on the right (south-south-east). Wind through the forest until you reach the intersection you took earlier.

(2) Then turn left.

(1) Return to the D5 and follow it to the right on the parallel road until you reach the car park where you started (S/E).

Between the car park (S/E) and the start of the fitness trail (1), there is a path so you don't have to walk on the road.

However, if you wish to avoid this section along the road, you can park at (1), but the car park is small.
