Going there : Let one car at the village of chapareillan, then with the second, follow 'col du granier', then bellecombe, then st marcel le bas, the, marcel le haut.
Continue on one km after a 180° turn, when the road stops climbing, park here, and walk down the forest for 10 minutes, there you are

In french :
Le plus courant est de garer une voiture Ã
chapareillan a coté de l'église. Puis de monter direction col du granier, ensuite direction bellecombe/st marcel.

Ensuite on traverse bellecombe puis st marcel le bas, st marcel le haut, continuer sur 1km environ après une épingle à cheveux la route continuer de monter, un peu avant de redescendre on trouve de la place pour se garer sur la droite.
De là un chemin traverse la forêt direction la vallée et descend pendant environ 10 minutes.
Un déco tout petit et technique vous attends
