Magnificent outing by mountain bike (or on foot), certainly a bit long if you plan the return trip as I did.
A first part in the forest on beautiful, very rolling paths. Just follow the GR3. No difficulty.
Then from the Col de Baracuchet, a second part which enters the magic of the plateaus of high stubble to the Auberge du Garnier (open from May to October)
Quite possible to cut the route in 2 by parking at the Col de Baracuchet and leaving either on the forest side or on the high stubble side.
and in any case, just follow the GR3 (and not the variant) which is very well marked. It is also possible to continue to the Col de la Loge or Chalmazel. On the program for a future outing.
