From the square Place de la Bacoue, 200m (approx. 656ft.) after the footbridge take the left-hand path that goes up. Turn left, go on the track that slopes up then go down. Turn right in the descent. Cross the footbridge over the Gabale and follow the track to the left.

From the footbridge on the Gabale, follow the track to the left. Turn right on the forest road of Garue. At the junction turn left and then immediately to the right on a path that goes up. Turn right, follow the path that goes up again then turn left. Still in the forest the path follows the ridge. Arrive at a beautiful beech tree.

From the centenarian beech tree, turn right and walk for about 2km (approx. 1.24mi.) on the path Chemin Henri IV.

After 2km (approx. 1.24mi.) on the path Chemin Henri IV, turn right 300m (approx. 984ft.) after leaving the forest. Go down. Cross the Gabale and in front go up. At the crossroads turn right on the track. You reach the point (2) where you’ll see the “Cassou de la Crouts de Hers” an old oak tree. Go down to the left to reach the start.
