To reach the start, take the track at the top of Guzet Neige (1,600 m) and continue to Cap de Guzet. Descend to the Col d’Escots, where you’ll find the Chalet de Beauregard (a first-aid post in winter and a mountain restaurant).
(S/E) Set off from the Chalet de Beauregard and, 100 m further on, take the path that climbs and runs alongside a fence. Do not take the path that descends (GR®®10towards Aulus-les-Bains) but climb up the mountainside towards the Tuc de l’Abibardis.
(1) Halfway up, the slope becomes steeper. Throughout the ascent, look back to take in the scenery to the north; from east to west, you’ll be treated to superb views and, in very clear weather, you can see as far as the Lower Pyrenees.
(2) Once at the Tuc de l’Abibardis, continue along the track to the right which leads to the Pic de Freychet, where you can stop for a picnic amidst a magnificent panorama: the Cirque de Cagateille, the Cirque de Gérac, the Pic de Seron (to the south), and so on.
(3) To head back down, take the track which winds through a series of bends.
(4) At the third hairpin bend on the left, cut straight across the slope to rejoin the track further down.
(5) Follow this road to the right until you reach the viewpoint overlooking the Cirque de Cagateille and the Cirque de Gérac.
(6) Continue along the road to return to the starting point at the Chalet de Beauregard (S/E).
