Step by step
Start: Park at "Place de la mairie" in Tréminis l'église.
Look out for the "Rando Croquis" sign. You'll need to follow the specific signs along the way.
1) Follow the signs for "Tréminis l'Église". At the signpost, turn left onto the Col de Mens road, then 20m further on, turn right onto the small path that climbs up. A few steps will take you up to the church. Continue past the old cemetery, with a beautiful view of the mountains. You'll come to the first sign entitled "perspective drawing".
2) Follow the path out of the cemetery through the gate, then straight on past the inn to the bread oven, where you turn left. A path climbs up and leaves the village, where you'll find the second sign at the entrance to the wood. A view of the summit of Aup unfolds before you.
3) Continue uphill through the woods, cross a field and enter a new, darker forest, where the next sign awaits you: "le dessin du sol" ("the design of the ground").
4) Continue straight ahead to leave the forest. A pretty balcony offers fine views of the surrounding mountains. You'll then come to the next panel on "trunk design".
5) Continue along the path through a beautiful pine forest. You will pass the "Versannes" or continue straight downhill to the sign "Dessiner le château des Chèvres".
6) Continue along the right-hand track, which gradually descends to the Ebron bridge, which you will cross. Enjoy the magnificent view of Grand-Ferrand. You then enter the hamlet of Le Serre as far as the little chapel, where you take the road to the right. You'll come to a small bridge and the next sign is just on the other side. The sign suggests "Randocroqueur" exercises.
7) Continue straight ahead. The descent continues as far as La Chenal, where you continue straight on. A pretty little path climbs up through the box trees. Under a tree is the next signpost, giving you a panoramic view.
8) The path continues downhill towards Chateau-Méa. There's a new sign on the path, entitled "un sujet, 4 techniques" (one subject, 4 techniques). It offers an interesting view of Le Ménil.
9) Finally, head downhill towards Le Collet. Turn right to reach the village of Tréminis l'Eglise, following the main road with care. Cross the bridge and then the fields to your starting point.
