From Le Cheylard

From terminus of route 12 bus from Valence at Ave Saunier in Le Cheylard (442m) (accommodation, refreshments, camping, tourist office), follow D120 NE (Ave de Saunier, sp La Voulte sur Rhone) downhill for 150m. Ignore the signpost pointing L to Gerbier de Jonc. Turn L (D578, sp Lamastre) across bridge over River Eyrieux. Bear R into Ave de la Gare, and just before pedestrian crossing turn sharply R (Ch d’Aurives) downhill on narrow lane towards riverbank. Turn R under bridge (Voie des Boutières) and fork R to continue out of village.

You are now on well-surfaced cycle track along route of old railway line cut into valley side. This track is followed for 7km past Riotord and derelict bridge (both L) to reach beginning of St Martin-de-Valamas. Emerge onto asphalt road and follow this bearing R, and turn immediately L at T-junction. Bear L on tree-lined road to cross river bridge then turn R (D120) uphill into St Martin-de-Valamas (8km, 551m) (accommodation, refreshments, camping, tourist office).
