Circuit de Pierre Luzière

Follow the tarmac road up to the fork in the plateau; turn left.

Just after the farmyard, turn left and start to descend until you reach the bottom of the Pont du Roi river valley. Cross it on the footbridge and follow the path; you soon come to a larger track where you turn right; on the plateau, at the level of a large wooded area, turn right and continue along a path which takes you gently to an easily-crossed ford.

Continue straight on, and after 120m turn left to tackle a 30-metre steep incline that marks the start of a forest path. At the end of this path, turn right onto a carriage road, which we follow for around 100m.

Turn left to quickly reach the Chapelle de Repas.

Continue past the chapel until you reach the tarmac road, which you take by turning left; at the fork in the road, turn left once again and you will arrive in the Pierre Luzière state forest. Follow the road for quite a long distance (approx. 1800 m).

At the last bend before the final straight, turn left onto a barely-marked path. At the end of the path, turn left, then right after about 30 m; this path passes the old Les Echards forest house and leads to a gravelled carriageway. At the fork in the road, fork left to follow the valley of the Charbonnière stream. At the low point, the path begins to climb (to the left) and leave the banks of the stream. On the flat area, fork right: you'll find the same route as before, in reverse.
