Start at the car park in front of Villeny church.
(S/E) From the church, take the Grande Rue to the left. Ignore the Place du Pressoir on your right and take the next street, the Rue Courte, on the same side of the Grande Rue.
(1) Turn immediately left onto Rue du Stade. Continue along the stony section. Pass the entrance to Les Quatre Maisons on your left, then the entrance to the guesthouse.
(2) Turn left onto the next path and continue north-east, ignoring the various private access points.
(3) At the crossroads, turn right onto the uphill lane. Pass the entrance on the right to Les Hauts de Bouet, as well as all the private entrances. The lane veers left towards the south-east, running alongside the Étang du Petit Collier on your left. The route, initially uphill, runs alongside the Étang de la Cierge on your right, then descends gently.
(4) At the crossroads (you’ll see the large cultivated field on the right), turn left to enter the forest. The path runs alongside the Étang de la Grille on your right. Pass the Grille farm on your left (tarmac section) and continue north, then north-west, running alongside the Étang du Mont Collier on your right.
(5) Opposite Château du Mont Collier, turn right, then veer left onto the wide, gravel-surfaced track and continue straight on towards the D88.
(6) Turn left onto the D88 and immediately turn left onto the forest track (a local path signposted further on). Cross the path leading to Château Mont Collier, which you will see again on your left, and continue straight on, ignoring the private tracks, until you reach a crossroads.
(7) Leave the path and turn right onto the wide grassy track heading north-west to the D88, where you’ll turn left onto the continuation of the track, heading towards the village centre and the car park (S/E).
