District:
Park at Herbeys, in the car park behind the Coquelicot shop, opposite the church.
(S/E) Walk past the shop, keeping to the left along the road and following the yellowPR® markings, then take the Route d’Uriage on the right. Follow it for about 500 m. You’ll reach a four-way junction.
(1) Turn left onto the road, then continue along the path that follows it. When you reach the village of La Côte, continue straight ahead at the crossroads to reach the La Côte landmark.
(2) Turn right onto the Chemin du Mollard. Continue until you reach the junction with the Chemin du Vivier.
(3) Ignore this path on the left and continue straight ahead onto Chemin de la Côte de Fournet, which is still marked in yellow. After an easy climb and a hairpin bend, you will reach Chemin de Fournet.
(4) Leave the yellow markings here and take Chemin Fournet on the right (follow the path marked with a Yellow Cross) to go round the Sommet des Quatre Seigneurs and then reach a crossroads of paths.
(5) Take the path on the right and begin a fairly steep descent. Continuing along this path, you will reach a four-way junction.
(6) Take the path on the left; the descent is less steep. You will reach another junction. Turn right and, via a steeper descent, reach the junction with the yellow-markedPR® trail.
(7) Turn right here to reach the entrance to the village of Villeneuve.
(8) Cross the village and, at the cemetery, take thePR® to the right. Continue straight on at the two junctions, without going to Les Combles.
(9) At the small pass, a road continues from the path. Follow this ridge until you reach a hairpin bend.
(10) Turn right onto the road, which is the Chemin de la Pra. Pass the houses at Le Pra.
(11) At Le Villard, continue straight on to reach, further on, the Herbeys car park (S/E).
A lovely walk with stunning views, but be careful in December as the descents are very tricky due to the leaves and the slippery mud, especially the one starting from point 7; the rest is perfect. Once I reached Villeneuve, I decided to take the tarmac road to cut the walk short as my back was playing up (the trees blocking the path are still there).
