No difficulty following the map; the village remains in sight for almost the entire hike.
To park at the start, use the stadium car park.
(S/E) Go up Rue de Chémery-les-Deux and opposite the bakery, take the square on the left until you reach the Coq Hardi bar.
(1) Turn left and, after about 100 metres, take the street on the right that leads into a small housing estate (Les Savignes). Continue to the end, then take the passage between two houses that leads to Rue d'Aunis.
(2) Take the alleyway almost opposite, Rue des Savignes. At the next crossroads, turn right and follow Rue de Saintonge then Rue de l'Huilerie.
(3) After the oil mill, turn left onto Rue du Magnou and continue to Rue du Plessis. Then turn right. After about 100 metres, turn left onto a path.
(4) Go up 200 metres and then take the path on the right that goes down towards some houses. At the first house, turn left into the small street. Then take the first path on the right and follow it. At the end of the path, turn left and then right 20 metres further on. You will arrive in the small village of Prinçay.
(5) Turn left and continue; it feels like you are passing through private property. Opposite two garages, turn left. Go down about 20 metres and turn right onto the path that descends. Follow the end of the road straight ahead and continue straight ahead on the path towards Château de la Cataudière.
(6) Turn left onto the path that runs alongside the property. Cross the D749 road (take care). Continue straight ahead, leaving the path on your right. Then turn right to reach the banks of the Vienne.
(7) Follow the path that branches off to the right. When the path turns right, continue straight ahead along the field (respect the crops). There is no path, so walk along the edge of the field. After passing the high-voltage power line, you will find a path.
(8) Turn right. Follow this path to a T-junction. Then turn left and continue to the Ternay farm.
(9) At the farm, take the small road on the right. When you reach the D749, turn left and then immediately right (entrance to the industrial estate). Follow the road for a short distance and continue straight ahead to the end of a grassy field. When you reach a path at the edge of the field, turn left and then right to reach the small road.
(10) Follow this small road back to the starting point. Pass by the Pigeonnier du Perron. At the next crossroads, continue straight ahead and at the small roundabout turn left towards the village centre.
(1) Instead, cross over to the bakery and turn right onto the street that leads down to the car park (S/E).
