Detailed stages
- Leaving the Town Hall square, where Saint-Martin’s Church is situated, walk along the cemetery wall, then turn left onto the path lined with a hedge. After 300 metres, turn right at the large oak tree. Follow the edge of the woodland (with a view of the rear of Espanès Castle) and enter it to continue along the path which descends to the bottom of the valley. On emerging from the woods, turn left and walk alongside them for 150 metres, then head up to the right between two fields towards the ...
- At the tarmac track, turn right (view of the Urtaut farmstead in the valley opposite). At the junction with the road (a dangerous crossroads with poor visibility), carry on straight ahead along the Chemin de Montan (view to the left of the village of Montbrun-Lauragais: church and mill; panoramic view to the right of the Pyrenees in good weather). After 1 km, the road begins to descend and turns into a grassy track. Follow it to the junction.
