The hike starts from the Saint-Céré Tourist Office.
(S) With your back to the Tourist Office, turn left onto Rue François de Meynard and walk about 60 metres, then turn left into the small alleyway. At the end of the alleyway, turn right onto Rue du Faubourg Lascabanes.
(1) About 100 metres further on, turn left onto the small path between the houses to reach a cul-de-sac, turn left, then in Rue Pierre Benoit, take the path on the right that climbs towards the castle. It will take you to Pech du Castel.
(2) When you reach the tarmac road, follow it to the right and, after about 100 metres, turn left onto the grassy path.
(3) Turn right to go up towards the castle via the small path. You will come out onto Rue du Soleil Bleu. Follow it for 40 metres and take the stairs on the left, which lead to the path that goes around the castle. Take it on the right and go around the castle, then return to the stairs, go back down them and turn left onto Rue du Soleil Bleu until you reach the crossroads.
(4) Turn right onto Rue Jean Lurçat (D122) and turn left onto Chemin des Vignals. At the bend, follow it to the right to join the tarmac road of Pech du Castel. Follow it to the left, ignoring the next two paths on the left.
(2) In the big bend (same junction as on the way there), follow the grassy Chemin de la Fontaine opposite, which goes downhill. You will come to a section of road that continues on and follow it to Avenue Michel Gineste, D40. Follow it to the right. After the stream, leave the road on the left and continue to the next junction.
(5) Turn left towards Le Dy. At the last houses in Le Dy, take the hairpin bend onto the tarmac road on the right. Leave the first road on the right and rejoin a dirt track. Continue on the right on another dirt track towards Lacombe, which you leave on your left.
(6) At the end of the road, turn right onto the road and rejoin a section of tarmac road.
(7) Turn left onto Rue Michel Gineste and follow it to the end to rejoin Avenue François de Meynard. Turn right onto this avenue, which will take you back to your starting point.
