Zugang

Zugang
  • Access is via the road from Fontan to lower Berghe, the RD 42. Just before the entrance to Berghe, take the small road on the left, marked "Les Celles". It turns into a (good) track quite quickly. You will park a little before the place called "Les Celles" and the bridge over the valley of the Ceva torrent. You can choose to go up by the nice path on the left bank, marker 239, 230 B, 230, or by the track on the right bank: they join each other. You cannot miss the Monument on the right above the trail, after about half an hour's walk.
