In the forest west of Haguenau

The start and finish are located at the car park at the edge of the forest entrance, opposite 22 Chemin des Friches in Haguenau.

(S/E) From the car park, with your back to the road, ignore the track slanting off to the left (the return route); take the track on the right, heading west, which runs alongside the field and then enters the forest, leading to the fence just before the D1063 (the four-lane Haguenau Western Bypass). Turn left and follow the uphill path to the wildlife footbridge.

(1) Cross the footbridge and turn right. Take the track that descends alongside the D1063. When you reach the high-voltage power lines, take the track on the left at the bottom of the descent and follow it through the woodland, staying on the main track (on the right). You’ll arrive at a crossroads where there is a small wooden bench.

(2) Continue to the right towards the cemetery.

(3) Walk past the cemetery and enter the residential area by taking the tarmac road (Rue des Menuisiers). Walk alongside the blocks of flats until you reach the electricity substation (large concrete block).

(4) Take the small path on the left and follow it to the D85 road near the Peugeot garage/Total petrol station.

(5) Cross the D85 carefully and turn left onto the path leading up into the forest. After about 200 m, turn 90° to the right and stay on the main track straight ahead until you reach the junction with a wide path. Take this path on the right and follow it straight on until you reach a wide right-hand bend, just after which you’ll find a junction of tracks. Head up to the left to reach the start of the fitness trail.

(6) Set off on the route, passing a community beehive. After about 150 m, you’ll reach a junction.

(7) At the three-way junction, continue uphill on the track to the right until you reach the next junction of tracks.

(8) Turn right, then immediately left onto the track suitable for vehicles. At the next junction, turn left, then quickly take the^first right and follow the path straight on to reach a track junction (located about fifty metres from the microlight airfield).

(9) Turn left twice and follow the sports route to^{the second} junction. Turn right towards the east and walk straight on until you reach the D85. Cross the D85 with care and continue along the track opposite, keeping in the same direction for about 400 m.

(10) Turn right at the second track, pass under the high-voltage power lines and continue to the four-lane road (D1063). Turn left and follow the four-lane road to the wildlife footbridge. Cross the footbridge used on the way there.

(1) Turn left, then immediately turn right and continue straight on through the forest towards the east. Keep going in the same direction until you reach the Chemin des Friches, then turn left into the car park (S/E).
