At the second, always take a right. After several minutes of descent, turn right towards "Le Bessay" and "Source ferrugineuse". The source is a hundred meters lower and is noticeable by its rusty color. The path continues straight to the torrent of Roubier, beautiful and refreshing site. Cross the wooden bridge and go up along the slope. Possibility to make a detour to see the Oz Waterfall. Arrived at the hamlet of Bessay, turn right direction "Oz Station", pass the Pont du Gay and go through the neighborhood "Clos du Pré".
