Parking N94, La Vachette, 05100 Val-des-Prés
On a pleasant family walk along a forest track linking the hamlet of La Vachette to Briançon on the left bank of the Durance, discover the Fort des Trois Têtes, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and Fort Dauphin.
From the parking lot alongside the N94, enter the forest directly from a small path at the start of the parking lot, which runs alongside the old buvette.
This path then runs alongside the Vallon ravine stream for around 250 metres, leading to a wide forest track.

At this junction, take the wide forest track to the right: signposted by the GR5 towards Le Fontenil and yellow signs pointing to the Fort des Têtes, this wide track winds quietly through the heart of the Bois de l'Infernet for 3 kilometers, passing the unfinished command post of the Batterie de la Lame and taking you straight to the foothills of Briançon.

The trail leads first to Fort Dauphin, then on to the firing range and the imposing old Fort des Trois Têtes.

The return journey takes the same route.
