Le sentier de Portet

From the Place de la Mairie, join the Route des Crêtes and take a grassy path to the right. It descends towards the ‘Houn des vignes’, a fountain with a semicircular wash-house that has been completely renovated. Continue along the track into the Lavielle woods. At the first junction, turn left onto the track that descends slightly, then leave the steep descent behind. All subsequent directions are on the right until you reach the Route de Garlin (D130), which you should cross (be careful of traffic) and turn right. Turn left onto a pebble track that climbs steeply. Continue uphill, and on the road, go to the church.

Go behind the church and follow the Très Arrious path (the three streams that cross below). Go up the shady path that leads to a lane. Turn right onto the route de Guerlat to reach the village of Portet. Turn right onto Rue de la Résistance and after La Poste, turn left towards the Mairie.
