Detailed stages

1 - From the Luchon station car park, cross the road to the impasse de la Liberté.
2 - Steep at first, the path levels out slightly afterwards and you climb up into the open, with a beautiful view of Luchon.
3 - After a twenty-minute climb, path no. 61 leads off to your right. It winds steadily upwards through the woods. On the way up, take advantage of a few gaps in the trees to admire the scenery.
4 - Higher up, you reach the Col de Pradets (1090m). Magnificent views of Luchon and the 3000 Luchonais. Continue along the path towards Cazarilh.
5 - You pass a pigeon farm and then the path descends to Cazarilh (971m). There is a gate at the first houses. Remember to close it after you have passed through. Turn left and go through the village.
6 - Before beginning the descent towards Luchon, the sculpture "Le randonneur" (The Hiker) by Françoise Lasvènes invites you to take a contemplative break.
7 - At the first junction, turn left. After a very short climb, the descent resumes into the woods.
8 - At the next junction, turn left following signpost 53 "Luchon Barcugnas".
9 - You're back where you started.
