Getting to the start of the route: (S) the car park is opposite the town hall in Pommier-la-Placette.
Follow the signs for “Chalais”.
(1) To do this, take the road that goes uphill and then turn right. Carry on straight ahead until you reach the square by the old church.
(2) At the church, turn left. Follow the road until you reach a right-hand bend where a forest track begins. The start of the route consists of approximately 1.5 km of tarmac road.
Then follow the yellow markings, go through a gate leading into a field and continue along the path.
(3) The path crosses a stream. Once you reach the ‘Gerboudière’ sign, follow the signs for ‘Chalais’. When you reach the ‘Bouzonnière’ sign, take the road that climbs towards ‘Chalais’.
(4) The path then crosses a road with a sign on the right indicating the Voreppe public forest.
Once you reach the sign for “Chalais”, follow “Charminelle” along the forest track that climbs uphill. At one point, the path comes out onto a junction of forest tracks. Take the one on the right and, a little further on, rejoin the path on the right-hand side of the track.
(5) Once you reach the Roize shelter, take the path just to its left. This path descends for a while, crosses a waterfall, then climbs again and crosses further waterfalls. Then follow the yellow markings to the Charminelle meadow (the grass is very tall) (6).
The return journey follows the same route in reverse back to the car park (E).
