Country:
District:
Park at the edge of Chemin deth Hourcades, which leads to the Cotdoussan Valley (altitude 948 m). Take care not to obstruct traffic.
(S/E) Take the track heading south-west, which winds its way up to a junction with a dirt track (altitude 1,100 m).
(1) Turn right, heading west, onto this track, which also winds upwards with a steep gradient. Continue to Courrades de Bazust (altitude 1,295 m), where you will rejoin the track you left further down.
(2) Go through a gate and continue straight ahead on a track to the south which winds its way up to a plateau (cattle park).
(3) From there, turn left and follow a path towards Cuq Crémail, passing a green hut below on your right. Continue to a fork (altitude 1,540 m).
(4) Take the path on the right towards the south. This path runs along the hillside, bypassing Cuq Crémail and joining the Col du Roc or Col de la Courade.
(5) Take the highest path, not the more marked one below. Follow this path south then south-east as it approaches the ridge.
(6) At the fork, turn left and continue on the path that passes directly below Pic Peyrenère, a rocky peak that can be climbed from its southern slope. Continue south-east along the ridge to Pic de l'Oussouet.
(7) Enjoy the view, then turn back. Follow the ascent route in reverse to return to the car park (S/E).
