Starting at the Maison du tourisme et du Parc (joint tourism office and National Park information centre) in Florac-Trois-Rivières, cross the RN 106 main road. Take the metal footbridge and keep straight ahead until you reach the Esplanade. Turn left and walk to the square. Take Rue du Quai and, at the crossroad, go straight ahead onto Rue de Remuret, which goes uphill to the Catholic church. Keep going uphill until you reach the D 16 road.

1. Turn left onto the road, and go past the council workshops and the entrance to Paul Arnal Park. After the bend, turn left. 200m later, the path rejoins the D 16. Cross the road and continue to climb straight ahead, crossing the road 4 times.


2. Below the ledge of the Causse plateau, head towards Mas Rouchet for 80 m. Then turn left onto the path leading to the dolmen on the edge of the Causse road. Turn left onto the road and follow it to the hairpin bend.


3. Follow the path that goes below the Causse ledge. For the first 400 m approximately, the path is steep and built with steps. Then it goes across the slope below the plateau ledge to the via ferrata at Le Rochefort.


4. Once on the flat area, ignore the path that goes up onto the Causse and go straight ahead on the path that hugs the slope, below the plateau ledge but above the cliffs.


5. At the crossing, take the path on the left that zigzags downhill amidst the cliffs to the hamlet of Croupillac.


6. Above the hamlet, the path veers left. At the far side of the meadow, turn left, go through the electric fence and follow the path that stays at mid-height on the side of the Causse. (NB: horse pasture, electric fence). The path crosses a track, goes downhill on the right, then goes through a meadow and rejoins the track.*


7. 80m later, you leave the track, turning onto a path on the right, which zigzags downhill towards the hamlet of Le Viala de Grimoald. At the path, turn right and, at the road, turn left, going uphill towards the houses. Once you have left the hamlet, turn right: the path joins up with the D 907.


8. Turn left to return to Florac. At the roundabout, go straight. As you reach the Collège (secondary school), fork left onto Rue du Pécher, then return to the Esplanade and the joint tourism office and National Park information centre.
