(S/E) Take theGR®10(white and red markings) and walk a few hundred metres.

(2) Head west on a path that climbs through the forest to a pass (1,648 m).
(3) Turn left and follow a path for almost 2 km, which is initially flat but then climbs very steeply to Col de Las Fouzès, where you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Étangs de Bassiès lakes and the refuge.
(4) Follow the ridge line to the right (south) with a few jumps. Pass successively at Pic des Planes, then Col du Morech.
(5) Pass by a breach overlooking the Garbet valley, which offers a beautiful view of the valley. Continue on the same route, pass directly below Pic de Caumale and arrive at large granite boulders marking the start of the final ascent to the summit.
(6) Continue on the same route to reach the Pique Rouge de Bassiès.
(7) Enjoy the magnificent scenery across the entire mountain range, particularly Montcalm and Pique d'Estats. Follow the same route back down to return to the Coumebière car park.
