Very difficult
Departure from Grancey-le-Château-Neuvelle (Côte-d'Or)
A challenging hike classified as very difficult due to both its length and the difficult sections on certain parts of the route, requiring a good sense of direction and observation due to sections through woodland and meadows off the beaten track (between (9) and (10), near (12)), as well as a poorly maintained woodland path (between (12) and (13)). It is recommended that you follow the GPX track. In good weather, the scenery is pleasant and varied. There are charming rural villages.
