Description of the walk

Park near Baillamont church.

(S/E) From Baillamont church, walk up the Grand-Rue and take the third left, Rue d’Oury.
Walk past the cemetery until you reach a junction

(1) Take the stony path on your right and follow it to the next fork.

(2) There, continue along this path as it turns left; do not take the path straight ahead.
Continue along this path until the next fork.

(3) Please note: here, you must take the path on the right, but definitely not the first one; the second is a few metres further on and not very visible.
You’ll pass close to a magnificent pond, which you’ll leave on your right, and continue along this path until you reach the crossroads.

(4) Turn onto the path on your right and continue straight on until you reach the edge of the pine forest.

(5) Take the very narrow path on the right, which is hard to spot, running alongside the pine forest; pass a pumping station and turn left with the path to join a road.

(6) Cross the road and continue straight on. A few hundred metres further on, cross a stony track and continue straight on until you reach the Route de Sedan.

:7:: Turn right towards Baillamont, then take the first small road on your left and then the first stony path on your right. You will then arrive at a path marked with a “Green Triangle”. Follow this path as it veers to the right.

(8) Follow the path to the right. If you miss this turn-off, you can continue along the path, which makes a small circular loop bringing you back onto the correct route a little further on.
Continue straight on until you reach the road, then take this road to the right to complete your circular route (S/E).

Notes

A very easy walk, with no major difficulties... but best avoided with pushchairs. Some sections are more challenging (large puddles, very narrow paths, tall grass in places).

A lovely walk, with some beautiful and varied scenery! Despite the elevation gain, the climb is fairly gentle and the descent is pleasant!

Between numbers 4 and 5, the route doesn’t seem quite right to us. The little path on the right at number 5 is quite wide and leads to a farm.
Note: for a break or a drink, there’s a café on the road to Sedan.

Please note: starting from Baillamont Church, it’s not the third street on the left, but the first one as you head up the road (almost opposite the church). Apart from that, the directions are fine!
Another detail, at point 7: the Sedan road, which you follow for about 100 metres, is quite dangerous and not recommended with young children...
Otherwise, a lovely walk in the snow!
