Meet at the Beauregret campsite car park in Drain for the start of this hike, and follow the blue markings.
(S/E) When you are facing the campsite, take the road on your left markedGR®3, between the campsite and the pastures. Continue straight ahead until you reach a crossroads.
(1) Continue along the path on your right. Follow it for about 550 m until you reach a T-junction. Turn right, leaving theGR®3, and continue straight ahead for 150 m.
(2) The path splits into three where you cross the Boire de la Rompure when its level is high. You can take the leftmost path if the level of the Boire is not too high; otherwise, take the middle path, which crosses a small bridge over a lock. Continue along this same path between the pastures for about 2 km until you reach a T-junction.
(3) Take the road on the left towards Les Brevets. Pass the campsite on your right, then turn right just after the last house in the hamlet. Stay on this path, which turns slightly to the left and then slightly to the right, leading to another junction.
(4) Turn right. You will then see the Boire de la Nigaudière on your left. Follow it until you reach a tarmac road. Turn left and cross two small bridges.
(5) Turn left onto the stony path that crosses Villeneuve, then left again at the first crossroads. Follow the path not far from the boires and the Ruisseau des Robinets. At the crossroads, turn left then immediately right to reach the D751. Cross carefully as there is no protected crossing and continue opposite towards Bas Frêne.
(6) Turn right through the vineyards until you reach Rue Guillaume.
(7) Turn left, then take the first street on the right, Impasse Fontaine des Sermentières (signposted as Chemin de la Caillerie). Follow this road, which turns slightly to the right and then to the left, until you reach Chemin des Dames. Continue until you reach the junction with Chemin des Tuilots.
(8) Turn right and walk along the cemetery. Cross the D751 at the pedestrian crossing and continue straight ahead along Rue des Pêcheurs to reach the campsite car park (S/E).
