  1. With your back to the starting sign in the parking lot, take the farm track on the right that descends through the pastures. After about 500 meters, you'll reach a fork in the path.

  2. Turn left. The path quickly enters the Côte-Brune woods. Continue downhill, ignoring all paths on either side, and keep going straight ahead (along the way, you'll find a chain and a sign indicating that you are entering private property; this is a courtesy of the landowner. Please observe the rules of good conduct). You'll pass over a railway tunnel and emerge onto a path coming from the right side of the Allier River (you can take this unmarked route to approach the banks of the Allier for about 500 meters).

  3. Follow the path to the left, which climbs back up into the Bois de la Maille forest.

  4. Descend to the right onto a forest track, which 500 meters further on leads to a track; follow this track. It remains parallel to the Allier River and the railway line, then climbs again. Pass the hamlet of "Les Taillades" and continue along the path. Reach a fork in the road.

  5. Take the left-hand path, which leads back to Pomeyrols. Go around the wash house to the right, and at the crossroads in the village, turn right and return to the starting point.
