Park at the far end of the ‘Petite Suisse’ housing estate, a chalet development near Villers-en-Fagne.
(S/E) Enter the woods. Cross the gully formed by the gas pipeline, marked by orange posts. A few metres further on, turn right and follow the path, which soon curves to the left. After 50 m, turn right and continue along this path for a further 1 km or so
(1) Emerge from the woods at the top of the Villers-en-Fagne–Sautour road and follow it to the right towards Sautour. After the long straight stretch, cross the bridge over the Hermeton and, after a short climb, pass in front of a magnificent farmhouse before reaching the junction with the Sautour–Merlemont road.
(2) Cross with care and take the path opposite, which climbs slightly.
(3) After 370 m, at the next junction, turn right and continue straight on, slightly uphill, for about 1 km until you reach a small wayside shrine dedicated to the ‘guardian angel’. (Read the information board explaining the legends associated with this shrine)
(4) Turn right and follow the path for about 1.2 km until you come out onto a road at the edge of the woods, near a few houses
(5) Follow the road to the left. The road first bends to the right and then, very quickly, to the left at the next bend; leave the road and follow a path straight ahead which passes to the right of a cluster of houses. This path joins the Merlemont–Villers-en-Fagne road 500 m further on.
(6) Turn right to follow this road, which descends and passes over the Hermeton before climbing again.
(7) About 150 metres after the stream, leave the road and take a small tarmac road on the left which climbs and joins the main road further up.
Follow the road to the left until you reach the summit. Shortly after the descent towards Villers-en-Fagne begins, take the entrance to the Petite Suisse housing estate on the right and head to the car park (S/E).
