The walk starts at the Old Allan car park.
(S/E) Go up the tarmac road, then the dirt track to reach the entrance to the ruins.
(1) Enter the old village through the south gate, take the second path on the right to climb the stairs and reach the top of the village. Exit through the two successive gates to the north of the enclosure.
(2) Once outside, ignore the wide path on the right that goes downhill and take the smaller path on the right that goes uphill.
(3) At the three-way junction, take the path that goes up to the left and continue to the crossroads
at the large open space.
(4) Descend to the right onto this wide forest path lined with pine trees, then further on you will see a parallel path slightly higher up on your left.
(5) On your left, the pine tree avenue disappears, giving you a better view of the parallel path and your own path coming together. Continue straight ahead along this very short, grassy section to join the path going uphill on the left.
At the three-way junction, take the almost flat path on the right. At the next three-way junction, keep right and then, 10 metres further on, climb up the narrower path on the left under the pine trees to reach the Croix de Siméon near a power line pylon.
(6) Just before the cross, turn onto the path on the right which descends and then immediately left onto the steepest path.
(7) Leave the undergrowth and walk along it for 15 metres to the right, ignore the wide track and stay on the narrow path (not marked on the map) immediately to the right, which leads into the brambles and dense vegetation towards the north-west. Do not take the wide path in front of you.
(8) The slope is steep but very short, with steps created by the roots. Follow the path opposite, which climbs slightly and then descends. The path is hollowed out in the middle by the passage of water. Join a track.
(9) Follow it to the right and continue to the right at the next fork. Leave the woods and continue straight ahead.
(10) At the tarmac road, turn left. Climb up Chemin de Fontvieille on the right, pass the metal barrier further on the dirt track to return to the old village and the starting point (S/E).
