(S/E) Start from the forecourt of Saint-Julien Church. Take Rue de la Fontaine Saint-Julien as far as the wash house of the same name.
(1) When you reach the washhouse, take the path on the right, then the second on the right, and continue along this path as it climbs until you reach the Grands Moulins reservoirs.
(2). Take the road opposite, go round the hamlet of La Forêt, staying on this road which leads to an old drinking trough on the left.
(3) In front of the watering trough, turn left twice in quick succession.
(4) At a crossroads where four paths meet, ignore the first path on the right, take the next one on the right and join the D73 road, then cross it.
(5) At the end of the track, facing a thick hedge, turn 90° to the left and continue along this track. Join the road, taking care to take the next track on the left. When you reach the crossroad, head towards Thury to reach the hamlet of Panny. At the entrance to the hamlet, before the old pumping station, go up the street on the right towards Gemigny, then take the first street on the right and, at the sharp bend to the right, take the path on the left. This out-and-back path leads to the Boutaut spring and an old feudal motte (traces only).
(6) Turn back. Back in the hamlet, go down the street on the right and take the first path on the right, which passes in front of the village’s old washhouse. Continue along this path, turning left at the next junction. At the top of this stretch, head down to the left to join a slightly wider path further down. At the junction, turn right, then take the first left to reach the D3 road. Cross carefully and take the small path leading down to the Moulery washhouse.
(7) Continue heading due south. Cross the D3 road again with care, take the first path opposite and the next one on the left, cross the road again with care and continue until you reach a small road, then turn right. At the second path on the left, leave the road and take the path that goes uphill.
(8) Then follow the edge of the Bois du Roichat until you reach a cross-path.
(9) Turn left. At the top of the climb, you’ll find the start of a path on the right.
(10) Carry on straight ahead. You’ll reach a crossroads overlooking a sports ground.
(11) Turn right and carry on until you reach a four-way junction.
(12) Carry straight on. At the end of a meadow, enter the area of the former underground quarries –Caution: Natura 2000 site – entry into these former quarries is strictly prohibited. Stay on the main path. Cross the road carefully and turn right once, then left once.
(14) Leave the path and continue straight on along a small tarmac road which leads round the hamlet of Grangette on the left. Ignore the road on the left leading to Thury and, after the farm, take a path on the right which passes in front of the Puits des Champs.
(15) Turn right; at the end of the track, take the road opposite and then the first left. Continue along this road until it joins a main road, then turn immediately left at the junction onto the track. Walk down to the D4 road.
(16) Cross carefully and turn right, then take the first path on the left, followed by the next path on the left, which climbs up to the hamlet of Colangette.
(17) At the Carrouge crossroads, go straight on for about 700m. Cross the D3 road and continue straight ahead, towards La Forêt.
(18) At the second bend, leave the road and take the track slightly to the left. Then take the first left-hand track heading south-east, which will lead you back to the starting point, ending with a short stretch of road (S/E).
