A short circular loop between cabins and pastures.
More of a pleasant stroll than a real hike, this route has the advantage of being very accessible without compromising on the beauty of the landscape.
The ease of this route also makes it very interesting for snowshoeing.
GPS or Visorando app useful for certain sections.

Departure from Razecueillé (Haute-Garonne)

From the village of Razecueillé, the route takes you directly to the Pic de Paloumère, offering magnificent views of the Piedmont to the north and the highest peaks to the south, east and west. The route to the finish is very varied: forestry paths, ridges, old paths that are a little forgotten and therefore poorly marked, beech forests frequented mainly by wild boar and roe deer.

5h 30
Moderate
Departure from Saleich (Haute-Garonne)
This hike takes place on good tracks and forest roads, through beautiful forests of beech, ash, chestnut, boxwood and other trees. The descent is mainly on less comfortable paths, which require a little more attention as they are less well-trodden. The yellow markings are good, but seem to have been scratched and partially erased between points (8) and (9). The route, which is mostly in the shade, can be done in any season. However, avoid periods of fog due to the reported problem of poor markings on part of the route.
