Park in the Les Fauries car park at the roundabout in Saint-Lattier.
Note: there is another car park in the centre of Les Fauries which can also be used as a starting point.
(S/E) Head towards the centre for 200 m.
(1) Turn right onto the medieval road (yellow signpost). The path turns left, then climbs northwards.
(2) At a path lined with broom, turn left (orange sign) and continue until you rejoin the yellow sign. Continue to the transformer at the road.
(3) Turn left onto the road, then turn right onto the first path. Follow it towards the mountain. Continue climbing up the road until you reach the orientation table, where you can stop to take in the view.
(4). Continue straight ahead for about 950m, ignoring the other paths.
(5) Take the path on the right just after a shed. House no. 1915 is on the left. Leave the climb and the yellow markings. Continue to a crossroads with several directions.
(6) Turn left and pass an old tobacco drying shed. At the top of the hill, take the road on the right, following the yellow markings to the crossroads (route des Crêtes).
(7) Leave the road towards Montagne and take the yellow sign on the right (Les Muronniéres). Continue for 30 metres and turn left onto a path that descends for 1.2 kilometres. Stay on the main path that passes through the walnut trees. Pass another drying shed on your left. A little further on, turn right next to a house and continue for about 200 metres.
(8) Turn right onto a path between walnut trees. At the irrigation post on the left, level with an EDF pole, leave the yellow signpost. At the end of the walnut grove, follow a pretty sandy path until you reach the D68 road.
(9) Turn left, continue for 300 m and, in the right-hand bend, go 30 m to return to the crossroads of the paths you have already passed.
(6). Turn left and stay on the main path straight ahead. Pass under a power line, the path becomes a trail and rejoins the road. Continue for 200 m until you reach the La Maguière sign.
(10) Turn right and follow the path. At the end, turn right then left (Chemin de Bel-Air).
(11) Take the first path on the left. It climbs through the woods for 1 km, runs alongside a cherry orchard and then comes out in front of a house in Chatenay. Continue for 200 m on the left.
(12) Turn right towards the pond and the wash house. Go past the pond and take a grassy path that leads to the D68. Turn right towards the hamlet of Les Pinets.
(13) Cross the hamlet and take a small path on the right next to a road sign. Follow the descent to the cross (depending on the time of year, the vegetation may be high at the start, but it clears up further on).
(14) Turn right, take the road that crosses the level crossing and keep right, continuing along the road towards Les Fauries to return to the roundabout you passed on the way there.
(1) Turn left and take care when crossing the road before returning to the car park (S/E).
Perfect, beautiful hike, well marked.
