Loop of Bonneval (B2)

From the car park, go through the village by passing in front of the Eau Rousse hostel and take a left right after. Continue on the forest path which sometimes cuts across the road which leads to the ‘Mont d’en Haut’.

The balcony road then takes you to the ‘Plan de Lay’ and the Gelon Bridge which passes over the Tartet River. At this point, the forest turns into prairies and high altitude alpine pastures. Go gently down to the Gelon Bridge which passes over the Villard Stream.

Join up with the Villard Soffray hamlet by going through the Ramée. Once at Villard Soffray, follow along the main road, cross the bridge above the Tartet and, a few meters further on, take the path which joins back up with Bonneval’s church.
