Chapelle Saint-Valentin

Guidebook with maps/step-by-step :

Étape 1 : Turn left onto the D231 as far as a footbridge. Cross it, then go through the campsite. Continue along the road, turning left into a hamlet, then left to take the path running parallel to the Sioule. After a small stone bridge, turn left. Turn right to cross the footbridge and then left onto the path. At the fork in the road, turn right onto a track that twists and turns for 2.5 km (PV1: view of the Saint-Cyrgues peninsula) until you reach a road.

Étape 2 : Turn right and follow the road through the hamlet (Montmartin) to a crossroads (fountain, wash-house, picnic area). Turn right to join a small road on the right in the hamlet of La Croix. At the crossroads, follow the road straight ahead, then the path leading up to a coniferous wood. Fork right at the edge of the wood to reach a cross track. Take this to the right. Go down the main path, ignoring the side paths. At the T-junction, turn right and continue as far as the crossroads at the entrance to the village of Tableix.

Étape 3 : Turn right and go through the village along the Rue de Laschamps and Rue du Chabagnat. Go up the road. Take the first track on the left after the village exit sign and, at the crossroads, descend quickly to the confluence of two streams. Continue downstream, crossing two footbridges, and climb back up to the road (D227).

Étape 4 : Cross it and take the path down the embankment. Turn right at the first fork, then left at the second. Continue until you reach a road. Follow this road to the right for 300 m. At a monumental entrance, turn right along a high wall. Go around the chapel (PP1: chapelle Saint Valentin) and continue downhill until you reach a road. Cross the road (be careful! poor visibility). Go downhill opposite. At the road, go straight on and cross the hamlet of Lavaux. Take the footbridge over the Sioule, then follow the road to the right to get back to the starting point.
