It runs between about 1,180 ft and 1,270 ft above sea level, with roughly 160 ft of climbing one way. It is a lightly prepared backcountry track rather than a machine-groomed trail. The nearest town is Saint-Hippolyte, about 2.8 miles west of the start. Peaks within about 3 miles include Mont Olympia, Le Grand Élan and Mont Shaw. For camping, Camping du Pin Rouge and Camping Rustique are within about 6 miles. There are 30 other mapped trails within about 3 miles, so you can combine or extend the outing. Distances, elevations and the trail shape here come from OpenStreetMap and the Copernicus 90 m elevation model.
