2 Des ruines du moulin à vent à l'arrivée

On the climb, turn left onto the track that crosses the cultivated fields, signposted “boucle de Puy de Fourches”. Continue straight ahead on this track until you reach a hamlet.
When you reach the hamlet, turn right onto a small road and continue straight ahead, staying on the small road.
At the bottom of the valley, after descending, take the road on the right. Then take the first track on the left. Continue along this path.
At the road bridge, take a bend to the left. The path runs alongside the road for a while and then enters the forest. Leave the wood and continue as far as the hamlet of “Bost Vieux”. Go straight on alongside the houses, then continue straight on along the path.
After 1 km, at the farm buildings, take the white path on the right to get to the cheese dairy (the shop is among the farm buildings opposite the house).
Otherwise continue straight ahead. At a crossroads of several paths take the track opposite in the middle, then continue straight on aiming for the bell tower of Puy de Fourches which dominates the plain. When you arrive in the village, continue straight on to reach the car park.
