CIRCUIT 5

The pebbles

13103.jpg

Departure: Tourist Information Office, Multi-Activity House

Les cailloux is a loop concentrated around Le Tholy. The route is varied and very mostly rolling.

Head towards the departmental road 11 which crosses the village, at the stop sign take the route of the mountain bike circuit N°4 which is twinned with your exit to the Bonnefontaine pass. At the Bonnefontaine pass, you have the organic farm in front of you, turn left and take the departmental road for 300m then turn right onto the Malvaux road, it climbs steeply, in the middle of the slope you will see on your right a bench and a wooded path that smells of hazelnut, take it it will take you to the Route du Chaud Costet then turn left and go back up to the crossroads of the 4 paths.

Arrived at the crossroads, turn left and then take the stabilized path of the Merelle located on your right, pass at the elevation 745 the Calvary and at the next junction go right to head towards Renifaing. The descent which takes you to Demangestat is pleasant and fun but once at the bottom you have to go back up on the right on the hard road for 400 m, at the small farm turn left to go to the colony of Stat, then go back up to the elevation 752 and go straight into the forest, then turn right, at the flat stones straight ahead to ride to the upper Vacon.

Go past the Calvary and immediately dive towards the wide descent on your left and immediately take the small path again on the left. Let yourself be guided and carried away by the difference in altitude and stay on the main route, be careful on the final part where the path widens and the surface becomes a little loose to then become stony but barely for 100m because a small path going to the Petit Tholy awaits you on the right to drop you off on the left, in a true haven of peace, the end of the circuit is near and you must complete the last 3 kilometers.

Turn right to pass in front of the pond and follow the descent on a stabilized path, holding the rope on the right until the 630 mark, turn left and head towards Petit Paradis. Danger of falling trees, turn right onto a path. Be careful, you will end your outing with a beautiful descent, short certainly, but nevertheless tricky, pay attention to the signs. The return to the road will be at the bottom right and straight on until the finish.
