Access: machine translated ➜

From Entrevaux via Castellet-les-Sausses (!) to Col de Fa(m) - P1 - see Google aerial photo (gray line). Depending on the condition of the road and the suitability of the car, continue to P2 if possible. The use of an (e-)bike is also possible here.\n

Approach (3 h): machine translated ➜

We reach the hamlet of Aurent (1188m) on foot and take the hiking trail to the head of the valley at the Cabanes du Prey (1630m). Continue according to the sketch to the entry point. The path soon loses its way and we continue without a path above the Valette to the entry point.
