At the next crossroads, turn right then left.
(1) At the three-way junction, take the tarmac road in the centre to cross the Mignotière. Leave the hamlet and turn left to follow the Chemin des Garennes.
(2) Pass the Denis Roux wine cellar and a picnic area. Before reaching the D40, turn right onto the path that runs alongside it behind a hedge. This will take you to a road.

(6) Return to the road (you will find three information signs about the wind turbines in the car park) and turn right, walking on the hard shoulder.
(7) At a bend, leave the road and take a wide path on the right. Continue straight ahead to enter a wood. After a short climb, you will rejoin the tarmac road. Take the road opposite that climbs uphill. Ignore the Chemin des Terriers on the left, then the Chemin des Gîtes de la Corde on the right, continuing uphill.

(11) Just before you reach a road, turn left onto Chemin du Champ Clairet. Return to this road and turn left. At a bend, follow the path to the right.
(1) Ignore the first path on the right and take the next one on the left. Cross the road and take the Chemin des Terres Jaunes opposite, between the two houses. Join the D40, turn left and return to the starting point (S/E).
