On emerging from the copse, continue across the plain until you reach a road on the left – do not take this road.

(2) Continue along the path opposite, which descends into the woods. Cross the railway line and follow the path to the right. It passes through the woods, then across the plain, and joins a road.

(8) At the junction, cross the road to take the path opposite which passes by the Moulin de Galleville. This path ends opposite the Doudeville cemetery (behind a high wall); turn right onto Rue de Bad Nenndorf. Walk past the sports ground, then past the secondary school, and continue to the junction with Rue du Val d’Auge.
Turn left onto this street and follow it until you cross the main road, Rue Georges Renault.

(9) Opposite, take the D110 (Rue de la Chambrette), then turn into the first street on the right, Rue du Petit Pont. Go under the railway bridge and continue to the junction.

(10) Turn left onto Route de Pichemont, then at the next junction, turn left again onto Rue du Manoir. When the manor house is on your left, cross the road and take the path opposite. Follow it across the plain, then after passing under a high-voltage power line, turn right onto Chemin de la Barrière à Bascule. Pass a substation on your right, then turn left onto the D110.
Follow this road until you come to a track on the right. Please note that the signpost has been dug up and may not be facing the right way.
