Description of the walk

Park in the car park at the entrance to the woods. There is a bus stop for line 82 right at the entrance to the car park.

(S/E) With your back to the road, head straight ahead and you’ll reach a five-way junction.

(1) Take the path on your left and continue to the next junction.

(2) Take the path on your left again.

(3) Cross the junction, going straight ahead, and continue to the edge of the woods.

(4) Follow Avenue de la Chapelle to reach the Chapel of Notre-Dame de Bon-Vouloir, which is well worth a look.

(5) Continue along the cobbled road (Rue Édouard Dewèze), which bends to the left, then to the right.

(6) Once you reach this point, leave the street and take the path on the left. About twenty metres further on, turn right, then continue straight ahead.

(4) Turn right at an obtuse angle; ignore a path on the right about twenty metres further on, and go straight ahead.

(7) Cross the junction to reach the opposite side, and head for the car park (S/E).
