Description
From the village square in La Motte-du-Caire, head north between the houses, then turn left at the foot of the housing development. The road quickly turns into a dirt track and follows the Saignon stream on the left bank.
Pass the return trail on your right and continue straight ahead, moving to the right bank.
Pass the downhill trail on your right again at a small dam and continue straight ahead until the next fork.
This time, ignore the trail on the left and go through the ONF gate. Continue for 1.5 km.
Turn right onto the trail that heads into the valley, crossing a ford. After 700 m, rejoin the ascending trail.
This time, take the trail to the left for 1.3 km.
Turn left onto the forest trail, then take the paved road to the left, still above the village. You’ll arrive behind the church.
