Start from the car park in front of the church in Crouy-sur-Cosson.
(S/E) From the car park, turn left onto Place Saint-Martin in the direction of Muides-sur-Loire and Mer. Turn right onto Rue Creuse as soon as you pass the town hall. Stay on this lane until you reach the hamlet of La Marinière. It is then followed by a wide path, often bordering the forest.
(1) At the crossroads, turn right onto the old asphalt road, Bois Poirier.
(2) Turn onto the first road on the right at the Les Terres des Mâles crossroads. Follow the stabilised lane, ignoring the various turnings, until you reach the Route de la Ferté (D103), where you turn left.
(3) After about 75 metres, shortly after the sign indicating the exit from Crouy-sur-Cosson, leave the asphalt road and take the grassy path on the right marked CR1 (country road). Access is restricted by two chains at each end. Pass Allée de Sologne. The lane becomes a narrow path through the forest, crossing the Cosson on a footbridge, then joining a small road.
(4) Turn left onto the small road and follow it until you reach the sign indicating the entrance to the hamlet of La Cordellerie.
(5) Shortly before the La Cordellerie sign, turn left onto the grassy path marked CR les Poulardières. At the fork, the left-hand path is private and leads to Les Poulardières; keep right on the grassy path marked CR.
Yellow-red markings (GRP® de Sologne)
(6) The grassy path eventually intersects with the Les Poulardières road, where you turn right. After about 100 metres, at the crossroads, keep right and pass through the hamlet of Bicêtre.
(7) After this hamlet, leave the tarmac road and take the first path on the left markedGRP® de Sologne.
No signposts
(8) At the crossroads, just after the stadium, turn right onto the small road that leads to the village of Crouy. To do this, keep to the right at the fork, then cross the Cosson before joining the D33 in the village, near the church, the starting point of the hike (S/E).
