Park in the car park on the D922 (Route d’Orléans) near the village pond.
(S/E) With your back to the pond, turn right onto the D922 and cross a branch of the Beuvron.
(1) At the fork in the road, leave the tarmac path on your left and continue along the road.
(2) Take the grassy track signposted "CR autorisé 3km7 de Fougeray", veering to the right, then immediately turn left when the track becomes private. Follow this forest track, ignoring the various side tracks.
(3) Turn left at a crossroads, at the sign for "CR de la Drelas 1290m". Again, ignore the side tracks or private paths on either side. The track turns right, then left, veers right after a cleared area, then runs alongside the Etang des Fossés. Then turn right onto the D922 (take care).
(4) Leave the road by turning left onto the signposted route “CR de Chaumont 6810m”. Pass the path leading to Château de la Drelas on your right, then take the left-hand track at the T-junction in front of the farmhouse. The hard-packed track becomes grassy; veer left at the junction.
(5) Leave the turn-off on the right and continue straight ahead on the grassy track, ignoring the side paths.
(6) At the junction of four main tracks, turn right onto the hard-packed track signposted "CR de Vilcou". Pass Étang de Vilcou on your right and continue to the junction with the D207.
(7) Leave the track signposted “CR de Vilcou 1800m” by turning left. At the crossroads, continue straight ahead on the D207, pass Château de Villebourgeon on your right, then take the right-hand Fork in the road.
(8) Leave the tarmac and take a grassy track to the right, which you will soon leave by turning left. Continue along the hard-packed track leading to La Bordebure and then La Meule.
(9) Do not continue along the path marked “la bergerie”, which is private (not shown on the IGN map), by turning left. The route then turns left to avoid the Étang de Bouvière.
(10) At the T-junction, take the path on the right. This will soon be joined by a grassy path as you turn left.
(11) At the three-way junction, leave the track and take another, equally well-marked track, turning left at a right angle. To do this, you will need to cross a ditch, so take care not to lose the route. This new track quickly leads tothe GR®31, marked in white and red. You will then need to turn left when you meet theGR®..
White and red markings (GR®31)
(12) Turn right at the first junction, ignore the various adjacent paths, pass the private track signposted "Saint-Hubert", then a marshy area on your right. Cross the D 207a and take the hard-packed track opposite.
(13) Leave the hard-packed track when it becomes a private road, continuing along the grassy path signposted “CR de la Chapronnière 780m”. This path turns left, then right before meeting the D207, which you will join on the right.
(14) Once past the Étang du Châtelier on your right, turn left at the crossroads. Ignore the gravel track that veers off to the right and follow the signs for “CR de la Marolle”.
(15) Ignore the access path to Le Châtelier on your left and continue along the grassy path signposted "CR de la Marolle". Turn right at the Fork in the road to cross the Villemalet ford.
(16) At the crossroads, continue straight on following the sign for “CR la Pérelle 2550m”. Cross the first tarmac road, then come to a second one after the track has turned right.
(17) Take the Chemin des Dames, a hard-packed track, which runs alongside the Etang de la Pérelle before meeting the tarmac road taken on the way out, which you will follow to the left.
(1) Turn right to return to the starting point (S/E).
