Depart from the forest car park in the commune of Les Orres. From the village, head towards the church and continue towards Le Méale and the forest car park. The last two kilometres are unpaved.
(S/E) Head north on a path perpendicular to the car park, following the direction of Le Méale via Le Serre.
(1) Turn right onto the forest path heading south-east.
(2) Common fork for outward and return journeys. Follow the path again, which climbs to the left in wide hairpin bends.
(3) At a place called Le Serre, take a sharp right turn. Leave a path on your left.
(4) Common fork for outward and return journeys. At Croix de Pierre, turn left and follow a series of hairpin bends to reach the summit of Méale.
(5) From the summit, walk a little along the ridge before taking the path back up to the Croix de Pierre.
(4) Common fork for the outward and return journeys. Turn left towards La Platrière. This path is not shown on IGN maps but, again, there are signs at each junction. Continue along the winding path, which then turns west.
(6) At La Platrière, a short detour leads to a viewpoint. Cut across a track (1955m).
(7) Return to the wide forest track and follow it to the right in a north-westerly direction.
(2) Common fork for the outward and return journeys. Opposite, take the same route you took on the way up to return to the car park in the forest (S/E)
