Guidebook with maps/step-by-step
1/ From the Nances cemetery, climb gradually into the woods, following the yellow markers.
2/ After a few minutes' walk, you can reach the Grotte de Conche on your left (steep path not recommended in wet weather).
3/ After the grotto, the path becomes narrower and more difficult on the edge of the cliff. Beware of rocks (handrails and steps are provided on the narrow passages).
4/ After an hour's climb, you reach a wider path called "Les Balcons du lac".
5/ On the left, you'll find the "Belvedere du reposoir", which you can reach quickly, before turning around to continue south along the Balcons du Lac.
6/ After the climb you've already made, follow the path through open forest, giving you occasional views of the lake.
7/ At the end of the path, the trail narrows abruptly and turns into a treasure hunt (yellow markings) on outcropping rock. Head downhill to reach the sign for the logers.
8/ After descending this path, you come to the hamlet of Gustins. From here, follow the road downhill for 400 m, then turn right onto the path at the bottom of the valley, which takes you to the shores of the lake and the "La Combe" headland.
9/ Follow the green path along the lake to the marsh, where you'll head for the "Sources du Gua", then on to Nances, your starting point.
