Guidebook with maps/step-by-step
Departure: You start your walk from the Place de la Fontaine in Chichilianne (parking lot), next to the church and the tourist information point, "Chichilianne" signpost.
1) From the "Chichilianne" post, head towards "Près des Oches", taking the road that passes in front of the town hall towards the east entrance to the village.
2) At the "Près des Oches" signpost, take the track that descends to the left and fords the river, then, a few metres further on, turn left for a steep climb on a pretty little path through the forest. The path soon becomes less steep (phew!) and leads to the summit (post "Le Châtel"). Enjoy the view and the information panels!
3) Descend to "Chevalanche", then turn right to "Pierre aux Corneilles" through the hamlet of Château-Vieux. A short climb brings you to the "Pierre aux Corneilles" signpost (with a bench in the shade for a short break!).
4) Follow the ridge due west towards the "Les Crêtes" post and continue along the ridge towards "Le Cros". You'll come across the D7B road, so keep going straight ahead, then cross the river on your left.
5) From "Le Cros", follow the track towards "Le Rapon" then "Chichilianne" to reach your starting point.
