After another 5 mins you emerge on the lane between Caubeyres and Fargues sur Ourbise (3.61km). Take the road opposite leading to the small hamlet of St Julien. After you pass the church, follow the road round to the right and you come to a “village green”, if you want to visit the source of the Ourbise river (which flows through the campsite) head to you right, to continue the walk take the road straight over keeping the “village geen” on your right (4.61km), after passing a few houses this soon becomes a forest track .After about 5 mins the track splits, take the right hand track. After 20 mins you arrive on the edge of Fargues sur Ourbise, to avoid a stretch of main road, cross straight over in the direction of Pompogne, after 5mins as the road swings to the left take the right hand turn to the church. When you arrive at the church if you turn right towards the “Salle de fete” you will find some public toilets. Across the road from the church is a small shop, although the opening hours may be unpredictable ! To continue, walk left along the main road past the restaurant, hairdressers and the Mairie.
