Description of the walk

Start at Mirligousse.
The circuit is marked in a clockwise direction.
YellowPR®® markings supplemented by green arrows with the number 39.

(S/E) Stand with your back to the house and head left. Follow the road to a crossroads. Cross the road carefully and continue on the path opposite. After 250 m, ignore the farm track that continues straight ahead and follow the road to Les Éclavonnières.

(1) Turn right and follow the road, which winds several times, until you reach a Y-junction.

(2) Turn left, cross a small country road with caution and continue straight ahead until you reach another intersection (not shown on the IGN map).

(3) Turn left again and, at the next fork, turn right. Drive through Les Grigonnières and follow the road until you reach a T-junction shortly after Les Masures.

(4) Turn right and follow the road until you reach a water tower.

(5) Pass it and turn right immediately after. Continue along the road, then take the first left to reach La Salmerie.

(6) Take the dirt track on the left. Join a road and follow it to the left.

(7) Take the first right at Petit Frênay. In the bend, take the path furthest to the right. You will reach a fork at the edge of a small wood.

(8) Turn right and follow the path along the fields until you return to the starting point (S/E).

Part of the route is impassable due to trees being felled by a local farmer on the path between landmarks 6 and 7.
