Guidebook with maps/step-by-step
(1) To reach the starting point, park at the gondola car park in Crozet. Take the road to the right of the cable car, and continue for around 700 m on the Route de la Thène before finding a footpath off to the left that starts at a footbridge.
(2) Turn left onto the path, which is equipped with information panels about the feline. Just follow the signs in the right direction. The path climbs along the downhill mountain bike tracks (take care with bicycles).
(3) The path starts out uphill on the left, rises fairly quickly, then forks right to rejoin the Bellevue forest track. It runs alongside a cistern, drops quickly to the right and then right again to return to its starting point.
