Car park on the banks of the Aulne, at a place called Toull ar C’hefeleg (woodcock’s hole) (access via thesecond roundabout at the Pouillot junction.
(S/E) From the car park, take the towpath eastwards and continue along the canal until you reach the first lock, the Trésiguidi lock, after about 1.6 km.
(1) Go past the lock and continue along the canalised River Aulne, which forms a large meander.
(2) Look out for the Vieux Bourg and its chapel on the opposite bank, which was the administrative centre of the commune of Lothey until 1846. Carry on until you reach the Lothey Lock.
(3) Carry on along the towpath until you reach a fork in the path. On your left, note the memorial stone commemorating the shipwreck that occurred here in 1693 (77 victims).
(4) Ignore the path on the left – which will be your return route – and continue along the canal for about 750 metres until you reach a small ruined house, where you leave the canal.
(5) Turn left onto this path, which climbs quite steeply through woodland; pass an old ruined building and, at the top, come out onto a small road near Verouri Farm.
(6) Turn left to head down towards the former Tréziguidy manor house, now a farm known as Maner Coz. Note the entrance porch. Walk round the farm whilst continuing downhill. At the three-way junction, turn left to rejoin the canal bank (marker stone).
(4) Begin the return journey via the Lothey and Trésiguidi locks – a distance of approximately 4.5 km – to return to the car park where you started (S/E).
