Very well signposted, a very pleasant route in warm weather as it passes through beautiful forests. Best to do it anti-clockwise, otherwise you start with a big climb.

Thank you for the information on the terms to use:
ring instead of circle and disc instead of round.
I have taken note for future descriptions.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

I also think it is necessary to provide this type of feedback.

The Visorando website was built on a participatory model.

A word of advice to hikers who have lost their way: take an IGN map with you, check your position regularly and do not blindly trust the directions in the guidebooks.

And, for added comfort during your hike, don't hesitate to use the free GPS app.

See you soon!

Hello Henri
You are right to specify that these are rings for this hike.
To correct From point (1) to point (5) GR red-white rectangular markings AND yellow rings
Reminder: in this area, rings represent hikes of less than 10 km or less than 3 hours, and solid discs represent hikes of more than 10 km, generally lasting a whole day.

Marking trails is a bit like a vocation!

Hello
Thank you to "piétineur" for your feedback and updates.
As a recent hiking guide at Compagnie Belfort Loisir, I have already made some wonderful discoveries with Visorando. I also feel it is necessary to provide this type of feedback because, as everyone knows, the trail markings are currently being standardised and the IGN maps are slow to be updated with the new markings.
A word of advice to walkers who have lost their way: set off with an IGN map, check your position regularly and do not blindly trust the directions in the guidebooks.

Hello,

@Pierrot DAVID and pietineur

To summarise, from (S/E) to point (1), blue ring markings
From point (1) to point (5) marked with red and white GR rectangular markers AND yellow discs
From point (5) to (S/E), return direction marked with red rings.

For information, the terms "round" and "circle" do not correspond to the C.V. standard (see link below).

Hello
For your information, my review from November 2018 included exactly these details.
Kind regards

Thank you for the information. I have finally corrected the file based on your comments, but I haven't done this hike since it was created, so I'm not sure if it corresponds exactly to your observations in the field... But it's already better in principle.
Best regards

I scouted this route with my electric bike before taking a group on a hike in mid-March (feasible but steep on an electric bike).
The description needs to be corrected to match the existing signage: start on the right of the car park at the blue round sign, then follow the yellow round sign and GR E5, and finally the red round sign from point 5.
The same observation was made several years ago, but the description has never been corrected.
So now might be the time.

Thank you in any case for this beautiful walk, ideal in summer and/or in dry weather.

A hike best done in summer to enjoy the coolness of the undergrowth.

A pleasant hike through beautiful beech forests. The climb is steep in places but not insurmountable. However, the descent requires a little caution as there are many loose stones underfoot.
As with many hikes in this area of the Vosges, the signposting no longer corresponds to anything.
At the start, follow the blue circle "Tour du Fayé", then the red and white rectangle of the GR5, doubled by a yellow disc, to Plain Baleroy, then the red circle for the descent to Grosmagny.
You may also want to check out the hike called "Tour du Rosemont et du Fayé", which covers part of this route.

Sorry, I created it a long time ago.
I need to follow up on it at some point to check the other points and make corrections.

It's a lovely walk, but from point 5 onwards, the yellow round markings disappear, which meant we had to take a 3km detour!
You should therefore follow the red round markings from this point onwards.

A pleasant walk to do with snowshoes. Allow more time than planned.

As for the markings, there is nothing we can do except change the description to indicate that the yellow triangles have been changed...
Kind regards
