Coming from Nemours, on the Poligny road, it is the first car park on the right.
(S/E) Take the Chemin des Grottes du Loup.
(1) Shortly after leaving the car park, turn right and take theGR®13 trailmarked in red and white, with additional yellow markings. There is a short climb over rocks. The markings are very clear but sometimes on the ground on the rocks or on trees. If in doubt in the pine forest, at a certain point you will see a concrete building (like a blockhouse), leave it on your right, but the markings are real even if you sometimes feel like you are going round in circles
(2) You will come to a flat intersection with a bench. The path on the right leads to Nemours, but you need to turn left. The path heads south and is fairly flat, allowing you to rest a little after the rocky section. The yellow markings are still visible. Follow these markings to Chemin des Grottes au Loup.
(3) Turn left, then right about 40 metres further on. Go down to thesecond path on the right: do not turn at the first yellow markings but continue along Chemin des Grottes.
(4) Turn right and follow the red and whiteGR®13markings through the rocks. At the first intersection, keep right, still on the marked trail. Then follow the path to the wide Chemin de Nemours à Poligny.
(5) Turn left (south-west), following the red and white markings.
(6) At another intersection, leave the red and white marked path and follow the yellow markings. There is a large signpost; turn right and head southwest, then west.
(7) Pass the Grotte du Troglodyte cave on your right and continue to follow the yellow markings. At a T-junction, turn left (west).
(8) Panorama of the Loing Valley. Turn right (northeast). The yellow markings are there, a little hidden but still visible. At a T-junction, turn left. Then turn right to climb the Pain de Sucre.
At the T-junction on the way down, turn left and follow the yellow markings to the Chemin des Grottes au Loup, which you will come across again.
(3) Turn right and follow the path down to the car park (S/E).
