Directions
From the village of S-charl, the path leads from the bridge at the village entrance towards Ils Chomps, gently ascending through the forest. Along the way, you pass the remains of a mining facility. Towards the tree line, the hike becomes quite steep upwards before flattening out again on the last stretch to Mot Madlain. The return down to S-charl is via the same route.
