Head to the village of Saint-Paul-le-Jeune, situated between Aubenas and Alès on the D901.
In the centre of the village, park in the square.
(S/E) Near the chemist’s, as you leave the car park, a narrow lane with a sign reading ‘sentier des dolmens’ climbs up opposite, on the other side of the road. Take this lane, which first becomes a track and then a path marked in yellow.
(1) Ignore a path on the right – this will be your return route – and carry on straight ahead.
(2) At a fork in the road, take the path on the left. Shortly after a right-angle bend, there are two shepherds’ huts on either side of the path, one of which is a typical example. Then continue to follow the yellow markings until you come to an old track, which you take on the left.
(3) The path veers off at a 90° angle. Along the next stretch, you can see two dolmens in ‘relatively’ good condition and others where only the burial mound remains, along with one or two collapsed slabs. Then follow the yellow markings towards the south-west.
(4) Before reaching the departmental road, the path veers to the right at a sign bearing the logo of a dolmen. From this point onwards, there were no markings as of 4 September 2022. You’ll come to a property, which you go round to the right. The path leads onto a track. Turn right here, passing through a green gate. Continue until you reach a junction with a footpath.
(5) Follow this path straight on until you rejoin the path you took on the way there.
(1) Turn left to return to the car park (S/E).
