The approach is through the Olum valley crossing forest and peat bogs until you reach the bottom of the valley where the ascent is on a steeper slope and with firm rock steps. You arrive at the Col des Gendarmes where, after a short plateau, you begin to climb up an irregular and unstable rocky slope to the foot of the main tower. There the climbing begins and you will make two stretches of approximately 40 meters each before reaching the summit. The return will be through the path of the 5 brothers lagoon and you will leave near a waterfall called the bride’s veil.
