    From the car park , head for the road, then take the dirt track immediately down to the right, below the car park. Look for the GR5 hiking itinerary and follow the panels to the Cascade du Rouget. The path leads back to the road and over the bridge across the river. Continue a little further, then after a few tens of metres, leave the road by taking the path on the left (signpost). The path climbs through the trees, crosses a small stream (bridge), then goes back up to the road. Follow the road and, in a bend, admire the Cascade du Rouget which appears quite suddenly!
