The signposted car park is located in the village centre near the town fountain.
(S) Once you have parked in the town car park, take the steps leading down. It is located past the small lawn and you will be able to see three spruces next to the cliffs of Bas-Verdon.
At the bottom of the stairs, turn right, and continue past a superb, semi-circular wash house. At the end of the T-shaped path, turn left (on the right we can see a pretty sixteenth-century dovecote).
After a few metres you will reach a road which you should take to the left, then turn right towards the small Saint-Christophe Chapel. Go around it and turn left onto the path called Les Fourches. During this section between the scattered houses you can admire the peaks of the Alps and the cliffs of the Verdon Gorge fault.
At the end of the paved road, pass the hundred-year-old oak tree on the left and go down the rocky road towards Verdon along a gently sloping field for 250m.
(1) At the T-junction at the end of the path, turn left heading around the field. Turn left at the fork 200m after: the trail crosses a landscape of pleasant smelling scrubland.
After rounding a viewpoint you will reach a larger rocky road. Then make a detour to the right after a few metres and reach a very nice picnic area. In view of the picnic area there is a sign indicating a viewpoint 10 metres away (2).
Warning, this will be the most difficult 10 metres of this route but reward of the view that awaits you is well worth the effort. In front of you are the low gorges of the Verdon in all their splendour. You will have views of the villages of Saint Laurent and, further on, Montpezat. The 4 Radio Monte Carlo antennas are visible in the distance, each taller than the Eiffel Tower!
Return to the trail. Come back to the picnic area and follow the path between fields of truffle oaks, rocks and scrubland. The path turns left and soon finds the village of Artignosc perched up high. On your right a branch of the Verdon can be glimpsed between groves and up above, an old watchtower seems particularly inaccessible.
At the first crossroads (3), a sign points towards the old mill, which is in ruins. Continue on the left to reach, after a few metres, another crossroads where this time you turn right. The trail passes through the short grass fields, skirting a grove of quince trees and a water tank. It then goes straight to Artignosc not without passing along a field with a few grazing donkeys.
(4) At the cross, turn left to reach the village and car park (E).
