Departure from Névache ville Haute by road.
At the Fortville bridge, cross the Clarée river. Follow a good path along both sides of the Clarée. A good descent takes you to Plampinet.
Before the Plampinet bridge, turn right and continue along the Clarée, first on the right bank
then left bank, with a beautiful stretch under the pines
then right bank to La Draye. This is where you'll find the trickiest sections of the route. You'll need to put your foot down to negotiate some of these passages.
Cross the bridge and continue along the left bank, skirting the village of Val des Prés.
At Le Rosier, stay on the left bank on a path to the left of the road
then cross the campsite at Bois de Boulogne des Alberts.
A narrow road leads to La Vachette.
Very easy
