After about 200 metres, turn right (leaving the^GRP®). At the next junction, turn left and follow the red and yellow markings again.

Go round the hamlet of Les Bas Aulnais on the right. At the Fork in the road, turn right, leaving a pond on your left. You’ll come to a junction near a pond.

(12) Walk round the pond, either clockwise (as shown on the map) or anti-clockwise.

(12) Follow the road south (straight on if you’ve chosen to go clockwise, otherwise turn right). Walk past the Manoir des Aulnais (17th century).

(13) Take the first path on the right, behind a small cross nestled between two trees. Walk alongside a pond on your left and ignore a path branching off to the right. Then turn left and, as you emerge from the woods, continue straight on until you reach the road.
