Departing from the small hamlet of Château Garnier at 1,095 m, follow the D2 towards Saint André-les-Alpes (yellow and red markings), cross the bridge over the Estelle and take the first right. Pass in front of the St-Thomas chapel and reach a crossroads.
When you reach the yellow marker indicating Plan de Saint Thomas at 1,117 m, turn right. The path joins a track, crosses it and then crosses a meadow to reach the forest. Climb up the hillside and join a track higher up. Follow it to the right as it climbs to its end.
You then arrive at the marker indicating the Bois de Favier at 1,696 m. Take the path that descends to the right, into the Ajasson ravine, then go back up directly to the Cabane de Cheval Blanc. From there, descend by the same path followed on the way up to an intersection, and then turn left. The path then descends along the side to the Favier ravine. Follow the valley on the descent and join a track. Continue to follow it along the stream to Château Garnier.

Variant: The summit of Cheval Blanc via the ridges. Its summit offers an exceptional panorama (+3 hours, +560m elevation gain).
