    Tips

    From the parking lot of the Coubon train station, a little warm-up by going down the greenway to Brives Charensac where there is a small crossing of the Loire then join the road to get back to the transcévenole.
    There, the path is a natural path if I may say so where you will find stones but not smooth ground as you can find on the greenways. There are about 4 and a half km of this stone path.
    Then after going through a tunnel towards Lantriac, the path is much more passable.
    After there is a fork on the right, we cross a road and take a small path for 150 to 200 m which can be cluttered with vegetation, but it is passable.
    After a climb, we come to a path where there are stones. The climb can be difficult if you do not have electric assistance, or a low level of fitness.
    Then we join a road for 150 to 200 m before turning left and enjoying a phenomenal panorama.
    Then a descent where you have to take your time, a crossing of a very pleasant little village and a very smooth path but in which there can be difficulties on the ground.
    After we join a charming little road before making a small climb to join a small path for a few hundred meters around Arsac.
    Then the descent on Coubon, and the climb to join the departure car park. Be careful the climb is steep at times.
