Parking at the Maison du Parc car park
(S/E) At the entrance to the Comtes de Champagne line (white path), turn left and take the dirt track. At the first marker, turn right onto the forest path and continue to the steps.
(1) Go down, turn left and take the grassy path. Turn right at the marker on the line between forest plots 20 and 21 and continue before turning left at the next marker towards the pond. Continue straight on to the Porte du Chat.
(2) Either continue straight ahead to complete the entire route, or turn right to take the shortcut. For the full trail, continue straight ahead to the Porte de l'Enfant and turn right onto the plot line leading to the white path. Turn left to the Valois Observatory.
(3) Enjoy the views of Lake Auzon Temple and retrace your steps. Continue along the white path (on the left when returning from the observatory) to the pontoon and turn right onto the line between forest plots 1 and 2. Continue straight ahead until you reach the "Traces de l'Homme" sign, then turn right onto the narrower path. Continue straight ahead, passing by the hut. Continue to the shortcut marker.
(4) Go straight ahead or turn right to return more quickly to the Maison du Parc. When you reach the junction with the grassy path, cross over and continue straight ahead on the line between plots 58 and 57 until you reach the pond. Pass the pond with its information board and continue straight ahead until the next turn.
(5) Turn right onto the rural path to the large ears. After the large ears, turn right onto the white path and walk to the next marker in the bend. At the marker, leave the path and take the dirt path to a fork.
(6) Turn right onto the line between forest plots 62 and 63. Cross the pontoon and continue straight ahead on the same dirt track until you reach the Comtes de Champagne line (white track).
(7) Turn slightly left before the white path and go down the steps. Turn left onto the path to return to the starting point and the Maison du Parc. (S/E)
