La Croisille town hall car park.
(S/E) With your back to the town hall, go down the road on the right and, at the crossroads, continue along the path opposite. Shortly after the private tennis court, pass the relay antenna pylon on the left and then go down the path on the right. A few metres further on, at the fork in the path, near a pasture, continue along the path on the left which runs alongside the woods and joins a road.
(1) Turn right, cross the bridge over the railway line, then walk past the church of Basse-Croisille.
(2) Continue along the road and cross the river (the Rouloir). Follow this road uphill to the D830.
(3) Cross it carefully, continue straight ahead, then quickly turn left onto the D710 towards Champ-Dolent. Pass in front of the Heurteloup housing estate and a few metres further on, at the crossroads, at elevation 158, continue straight ahead on the road for a few hundred metres until you reach the right-hand bend.
(4) At the bend, leave the tarmac road and follow the dirt track on the left. This crosses a cultivated area before reaching the Bois de la Garenne. At the entrance to the woods, follow the path on the left and, at the road, continue straight ahead for about 100 metres.
(5) Leave the road and follow the forest path on the left, then pass in front of a log cabin. At the edge of the woods, descend into the small valley along the edge of the woods, then turn left between the horse paddocks and join the D830.
(6) Turn right, cross the Chignolle Bridge over the railway line, then the bridge over the river. A few metres further on, turn left into the small street (Chemin de Gregneuseville). Pass three adjacent private paths, then take the path opposite, marked in red and white. After a pretty Norman house built of white stone, continue along the path that climbs up the hill. Enter Haute-Croisille and arrive at a crossroads with a stop sign.
(7) Turn right, heading north, pass the calvary, then at the next crossroads, continue straight on along Rue du Bourg. In the bend, pass in front of the pretty farmhouse in the village, then follow the path on the left that runs alongside the pond and return to the town hall car park (S/E).
