Description that could be confusing at the crossroads after the bridge over the Noye.
In fact, it is a route that is entirely marked in yellow called the Bois de Berny route.

Apart from the fact that we got lost at the start and finish, so we ended up walking an extra 3 km, it's always nice to have a route to follow when you set off!
