From undergrowth to meadow, from valley to plateau, this rather physical circuit offers us beautiful panoramas, with the typical villages of Blesle, Besse and Pressac as a gift.
1 - From Place Saint-Pierre in Blesle (parking), head left towards Voireuze (canal) and take the second bridge to cross it.
2 - Walk a few meters to the right then go up immediately between the houses on your left.
3 - At the top, at the Calvary, (view of Blesle), continue straight on above a house and join a wide path that you follow straight on.
4 - At the fork, go down to the left, cross the bridge and go up.
5 - After a field, you reach a track which makes a hairpin bend. Follow it to the right and go up to the plateau. Turn right to join Pressac.
6 - Cross the village, pass between the two farms then into a meadow. Then follow the path that descends into the valley of Védrines. Cross the ford and go up in switchbacks.
7 - In view of the village, head right on the path bordered by a low wall and continue between the trees until you reach a track.
8 - Take it to the right (view of the Chadecol plateau, the Alagnon valley, the lime of Espalem, the Livradois-Forez).
9 - At the first fork, go down to the left then left again between the trees at the second fork. Join Blesle. Cross the Voireuze, then turn right. Pass to the left of the Tour de Mercoeur and continue straight on to reach the Place Saint Pierre.
