[Trek] Tour du Suillet by moutain bike
From Orpierre, take the RD 30 toward Laborel; at the Laborel/Villebois junction, turn right toward Villebois.
Head uphill toward the hamlet of La Montagne, on the right.
At a place called Les Faysses, leave the road and take the trail on the right. Cross the hamlet of La Montagne, then, 300 m further on, turn left.
Take a somewhat steep trail on the right. At the pass, continue to the right.
At the Font Salée ridge, follow the forest trail to the right.
At the end of the trail, at a right-hand bend, take a path to the left. Admire the Trescléoux Valley to your left.
Leave this path to take a small trail to the left through the beech forest. It climbs up to the ridge.
At the junction with the GR®, take the ridge to the right. A short push or climb will be necessary before reaching the highest point of the hike.
Once below the summit of Suillet, the descent can begin, heading toward Orpierre! (Leave the GR®)
At the pass above St-Vincent, turn left. Caution: some sections of the descent toward Orpierre are very technical! About 1 km further on, be careful to turn right at the fork.
Join the Chemin des Blaches, go straight ahead, then, at the intersection with the trail leading to the climbing cliffs, head downhill again.
Descend through the housing development to the D 30.
On the D 30, head right toward the Place d’Orpierre.
