Starting point: small car park in front of the church in Sus-Saint-Léger on the Grande Rue.
(S/E) With your back to the church, turn right. Just after number 400, turn left onto the small road. At the T-junction, turn left onto a beautiful grassy path and reach a small road. Follow it to the right to reach the cemetery.
(1) Turn right again and continue to the T-junction.
(2) Take the path opposite (clear in February 2019) and, after passing two gates (without difficulty), you will reach a small road. Follow it to the left and stay on this good path (at the large tree with a shrine and a sign saying "On a toujours le choix" [We always have a choice], turn right) heading south and you will arrive near the Lucheux Forest.
(If the path is in very poor condition, turn right at point 2 and then left at the T-junction).
(3) Turn left onto theGR®124. A few metres further on, theGR® turns left onto a grassy path. Continue, reach the D5, cross it and continue straight ahead on a path for about 500 m.
(4) Make a return trip to the right to see the Chapelle Saint-Léger (not signposted, but a very beautiful path). On your return, continue on theGR® and reach the campsite. Join the D5 and follow it to the left.
(5) At the crossroads, turn left (D127E), still following theGR®. A few metres further on,
the GR°°® ° turns right onto a path. Follow the Grouche and arrive near a house.
(6) Leave theGR® which turns right and continue straight ahead, still on the left bank of the river. You will reach a T-junction.
(7) Turn right, then right again 100 metres further on (Rue Porte au Wez). Cross the Grouche and at the three-way junction, turn left into Rue à Cailloux to join the D 5.
(8) Take Rue du Boisle opposite, which runs alongside the château (not very visible). At the T-junction, turn left and you will arrive at one of the château entrances.
(9) Continue along the small street on the right. Just after a bend, don't miss the pretty little street (Ruelle Bazin) on the left (sometimes a little cluttered) which will take you back to the D5.
(10) Follow the D5 on the left for about 200 metres.
(11) Take Rue Paquette on the left, which continues along Chemin Royal to cross the forest. This long, straight avenue (artistically lined with watchtowers!) crosses theGR® 124 trail after 3 km (you are almost at the highest point, the crossroads is clear and the markers are visible).
(12) Follow theGR® on the right: this is a difficult section, even in dry weather, where you often have to avoid puddles by taking the paths parallel to the road: this is the aptly named Fosse Entonnoire (sic). When you reach the edge, leave theGR® (which goes to the right at the edge) and go straight ahead.
(13) At the Y-junction, go left and a little further on, turn right to join the D59. Take Rue Saint-Julien opposite and further on, a small road on the right that joins Rue du Moulin (pass close to a farm). Follow it on the right until you reach the D59. The church is on the right (S/E).
