Join the main road at the top of Villar d'Arène. Cross it at a small shed (be careful) to find a path that climbs up into a wooded valley, then after a few hairpin bends reach a small road.
Follow the road for 50 m, then take the left-hand track.
At the next junction, take the right-hand path, then turn left to cross the grassy slope. Reach a crossroads on the ridge (2,058 m). Take the left-hand path to the Aiguillon summit (2095 m, panorama).
