Chapelle des Vernettes - Tour de l'Aiguille Rousse extension

From the Parking de la Chenarié, cross the bridge over the Poncet stream. Follow the track for a few dozen metres, then take the path on the right. At the crossroads a little further up, turn left towards Pracompuet (Chapelle St Jacques dating from 1684). After the last house in the hamlet, take the path on the right, which climbs steeply between two walls. Cross a farm track before joining the track leading to Les Vernettes. Follow it up to the right as far as La Chapelle.

Retrace your steps slightly to the bend and take the left-hand path leading to the chapel and the Miraculous Spring. The path gradually descends to Chenarié, winding through the woods.

Tour de l'Aiguille Rousse via Col d'Entreporte (2389 m)
