Travel along shady forest paths before coming to the Dronne at the bridge. Nice uphill walk through the woodland along a lovely sunken lane, little village of Peytour. Go along the meadows again before entering a small wood. Cross the departmental road at the village of Les Farges, unsealed road then a forest road to Bellevue, where you once more head towards an unsealed road lined by meadows and woods. Cross the departmental road again to head towards the village of Puydoyeux, then go down towards the old La Maque mill, crossing a lovely forest, and arrive at the little wooden bridge over the Dronne at the old La Maque mill. Follow the river to the bridge over the Miallet-St-Saud departmental road. Return towards St-Saud via Maisonneuve, where you go along a small lake before taking an unsealed road that ends near the Church of St-Saud.
