Then turn left. Note on the right a gariotte. Go down the path and come out on a road; turn right, pass in front of a small barn.

At the second path on the right, continue the gently sloping path. Arrive at a crossroads with a beautiful stone cross.

Go down the path on the right which leads to the hamlet of “Caïx”.

To turn left. Pass above the Château de Caïx. Arrive at the crossroads with the cross (5), take the same path as on the way out.

Follow left on the path, at the crossroads of the four rural paths, turn left towards the hamlet of "Calvignac".
