Suivre la départementale 18 jusqu'à son terme,route de la fontaine sulfureuse. C'est très calme, mais mauvais état: des trous et beaucoup de gravillons.Deux passages très sévères en début et fin d'ascension. Cependant cadre bucolique ,à l'ombre et au bord du ruisseau "l'Oussouet". Vertues médicinales de cette eau locale !
