Guidebook with maps/step-by-step

1/ From the start sign, take the Amédée Chapelle lane; after 50 m, turn left into the Rue des Ânes, which soon becomes a footpath. Go through a metal barrier (chicane) and follow the Sioulet for around 2.5 km. At the junction with a wide track, turn left down to a footbridge over the Sioulet (Pellefort bridge).

2/ Cross the bridge and continue on the track opposite, which twists and turns into a small road. At the last house in the hamlet of Pellefort, turn left and climb up the plateau to a T-junction.

3/ Take the road on the left. At the crossroads in the village of Les Bouchons, turn right; 100 m further on, turn left and at the last house in the village, take the track on the right. Follow this for about 1 km and descend into the Sioulet valley. At the first house, take the small road on the right to join the D987 at the entrance to Pontaumur. After the supermarket, turn left to cross the Sioulet and join the Post Office car park.
