Accesso:
Park by the bridge in Entraigues (there is more than 1 village with this name in France). The road beyond the bridge is officially off limits though the locals use it, also on quads or high clearance vehicles.
Avvicinamento (1 h):
Hike towards the Aigulles d'Arves on the forest road which is flat at first, but soon is steeper and exposed to landslides. Best to follow the road and not the secondary trails. If one is coming from Vallon, cross the main river, and hike south along the winding road to the entrance.
Giro (2 h 30):
Open at first, but increasingly steeper and only slightly enclosed up until the c65 (15+50) with intermediate belay on the right (in the active).
Ritorno (30 min):
Return via the main river (stay on the right) a few 100 meters to find a trail, river right, going up and taking us back to the approach path.

Idrologia:
Rain + snowmelt. The main river may be brown, but when it is not swollen, then the tributaries are most likely doable (can be evaluated on the approach by looking into Vallon).
