The Shepherds’ path

Starting point - From the starting sign, take the path parallel to the road (view on the "Pailhats", terraces supported by dry stone walls), cross the bridge and go up to the right. 100m further on, turn right onto a wide, steep path. At the top of the hill, ignore the left path, continue opposite and go down opposite until you reach a retrograde path located at mid-slope.

1 - Take it to the left and go up in steep bends to reach the plateau where the path continues between the meadows up to a T-junction.

2 - Turn left and continue for about 500 m (point of view on the Cézallier, the Sancy massif, the Puys chain, the Courgoul gorges, the Brionnet chapel). Ignore the left path, keep going straight down. At the next crossing, continue opposite until the intersection at the entrance to the village of Auzolette.

3 - Cross Auzolette by the main street (cross, bread oven). At the end of the hamlet, turn left and 100 m further on, turn left again. Then go down by a winding path (view of the peak and the chapel of Brionnet), leave a track on the right, continue straight down to reach the Couze valley and, taking on the left, reach the starting point.
