Park in the small car park on the left as you go up Rue Léo Lagrange, opposite the Pouratte park. (Other parking options are available on the other side of the stadium).
(S/E) With your back to the stadium, walk up Rue Léo Lagrange and turn left onto Rue Jean Bouin until you reach Rue Pierre de Coubertin. Turn right, then left onto Rue Paul de Vivie.
(1) At the end of the housing estate, turn right and take the path; then a few metres further on, turn left. The path climbs slightly through fields, passing under two power lines. Continue climbing until you reach the farm. Then take the tarmac road on the right.
(2) Turn left towards Feugerolles Castle. Continue climbing on the tarmac road until you reach the castle entrance.
(3) Leave the tarmac road and take the parallel path on the left that runs alongside the D22. This will take you to the hairpin bends of the RD22, better known as the "route de Saint-Romain-les-Atheux".
(4) Continue climbing and turn right; the climb is a little steep but short.
(5) At the crossroads, turn right and head towards the hamlet of Montamoger.
(6) In the hamlet, take the tarmac road on the right and then pass the equestrian centre on your left. Continue along the path that turns left. You will begin the descent to the Cotatay dam. At an altitude of 809m, continue downhill to the right.
(7) Turn left onto the path, which winds down a fairly steep descent. Then join the tarmac road coming from the valley, turn right onto the forest track and follow the Le Cotatay river to the dam (beware of vipers in hot weather!).
(8) At the foot of the dam, turn completely left onto the path that climbs up and overlooks the Cotatay valley until you reach the RD33, which you cross to take the path opposite. The slope is quite steep.
(9) At the crossroads, turn left and begin the descent. Pass close to an orientation table and arrive at a place called La Croix du Bessy. Continue straight downhill and rejoin the RD33, which you cross (be careful, visibility is poor in the bend but the road is not very busy!).
Continue along the forest track and pass under a power line towards the hamlet of Baboin, which you will leave behind as you turn left.
(10) The track turns into a path that runs alongside houses and joins a tarmac road. Turn right, then left into Rue de Cotatay.
(11) Continue along this street until you reach the intersection with the Cotatay valley.
(12) Turn right and, a few hundred metres further on, turn left onto Rue Jacqueline Maillan.
(13) At the crossroads, turn left onto Rue Charles Exbrayat until you reach Rue Paul de Vivie.
(1) Then turn right and follow the same route back to the car park (S/E).
