Après s’être hissé au-dessus de Laurie, le randonneur appréciera le charme d’un parcours plat et reposant avec un panorama circulaire : Mont Journal, Brèche de Giniol, Suc de Védrines. Une halte au tumulus du Chouquet apporte une touche d’archéologie.

Departure- Depart from Laurie, place de l’église, up the alley leaving the church behind.
This alley makes two hairpin bends to reach a wider road. Turn right towards Anliac.
1 – 150 metres after a bend in the road, turn left onto a wide track which rises slightly. When you reach a scree slope and a fork, keep left.
At the track, turn left and descend slightly. Viewpoint over the Pérou volcano, rich in volcanic breccia and augite (an acid-proof black mineral).
2- At the crossroads, turn right, then, after about 40 m, right again. The grassy path then runs alongside a remarkable wall. It crosses the plateau, then becomes a wide track leading back to the D55.
Panoramic views of Mont Journal, Brèche de Giniol, Sucs de Védrines, Luzer and Loubarcet.
3- At the road, turn right for 250 m.
4- Leave the road to take a gravel path on the right that bends into a hairpin. Viewpoint over Foulières, built on a spur to save land.
5- Go straight ahead at the crossroads. Continue straight ahead on this wide track for about 800 metres.
6- At the crossroads, leave the downhill track and turn right onto a grassy path (do not enter the meadow).
7- At the entrance to the hamlet of Anliac, take the second track on the right at the corner of a wall, then turn right at the road. Turn left at the bend in the road, then right 20 m further on, on a path that leads downhill, crosses a small stream and climbs back up to Le Suquet. A burial mound is visible.
8- At the crossroads, turn left and take the same path to Laurie as on the outward journey.
All year round.
Subject to favorable weather.
