Landing
Prefer to land in one of the many fields below the site. The one indicated is easy and close to the road. It is possible to land directly at the Collet du Tat, but the Venturi effect can be strong.
Access and parking
Just after Rioupes, you can take a small road. When it becomes a trail, leave the car, or continue if you have a 4x4 wheel until the GPS point indicated on the map, called 'collet du Tât' on the Ign map.
