The walk starts in front of the town hall, where you can park.
(S/E) Take Rue du Colombier. The street runs alongside the wall of Congy Castle, which can be seen through the gate. Continue straight on.
(1) Take the first path leading into the woods on the left. This path is marked in red and yellow (GRP® Tour du Pays de Montmort). After 400m, the path turns right, then arrives at a hunters’ hut.
(2) Head straight ahead and continue along the path through the woods.
(3) Pass close to Vieille Andecy. Continue along the marked path; do not head towards the farm.
(4) Pass by the Ferme du Buisson. Continue along the same path.
(5) At the first houses in Villevenard, cross the bridge on the left towards the vineyards. Take the first path on the left, then the first on the right.
(6) Once at the top of the vineyards, continue along the path that runs between the vineyards and the woods. After 2 km, you’ll reach a quiet country lane. Take it on the left.
(7) At the crossroads, take the path straight ahead that runs alongside the vineyards. When you reach the D243, turn right and follow the road behind the embankment to the vineyards.
(8) Turn left onto the path that goes round the vineyards until you reach the D243 again. Follow the road behind the embankment for 200m.
(9) Turn left onto the path that passes near the menhir. Continue along this path, following the row of trees and the ditch that mark the boundary of the marshy area (private pond). When you reach the edge of the woodland, turn right onto the path that climbs a small hill to reach a small copse.
(10) At this point, walk along the edge of the woodland to the south if you want to be in the sun, or to the north if you want shade. Continue along the path which leads to the edge of the vineyards and keep going in the same direction, following a wooded section.
(11) Where you meet the vineyards again, take the path on the left that runs along the foot of the vineyard.
This path takes you back to the village of Congy. Turn left onto Rue du Bordet, then left again onto Rue des Vignerons.
(12) At the roundabout, turn right into Rue Saint-Rémy, which takes you back to the starting point.
, and they check in the people as they pass. At the second station, there are drinks, cake and fruit. They check you in again. At the finish line, there’s a welcome drink, and the chance to have a chilled lunch under the market hall.
