Hiking only across fields and a few vineyards, not very interesting except for those who want to get some fresh air if, as was our case, the wind is blowing strongly.

At the start, after leaving the town of Rilly, the path (on the left) is not easy to choose, as there are several paths through the vineyards!
Once you reach the ridge, you must pass in front of a shed (200 metres away) in the direction of the village of Montbré.
At the end of the route, rather than returning by the same route, pass by the cemetery, the château (restaurant) and the church before returning to the station.

Lovely picnic area a little off the route. Added to the photos.

We did this hike to enjoy the first sunshine of spring: we saw that the route is completely open and that's exactly what we were looking for. In summer it must be very hot because there's not a shred of shade. Nice to do in autumn for the colours.
The views of Reims and the vineyards in the first part, then of the villages in the Reims mountains in the last part, are very beautiful. The route is very easy, with no difficulties, but a GPS is essential because there are many paths through the vineyards and they all look alike. However, it is a bit monotonous if you are looking for variety: there are only vineyards and a few fields.
We walked fairly well without stopping, so it only took us 2 hours and 40 minutes.
There are some beautiful houses to see in Rilly.
Parking at the station guarantees you'll find a space, but you can try Rue Gambetta to avoid the return trip.

A pleasant hike in the sunshine, with beautiful views of Reims and the surrounding area.
The route took us 3 hours at a leisurely pace, with a short detour to see the entrance to Fort Montbré.
Between points 5 and 6, the route is a little monotonous.
All in all, a pleasant walk.

Good morning
Taken this morning, 16 September 2018.
Lovely views of Reims Then panoramic views of the Reims mountains.
Autumn and spring are the best times to do this hike as there is little shade.
We covered the 13.230 km in 3 hours and 23 minutes with few breaks.
Contrary to some comments, the description was not very helpful at the start, but then the GPS worked perfectly as the route is very accurate. It is impossible to get lost, unless you are distracted and forget to follow the route on your phone or GPS. I take both with me in case one of them fails. And even in these conditions, it's quite easy to get back to Rilly, even if you stray from the route.
Thank you.

The description of the hike and the route are perfect.
It's an easy hike, and even people in their sixties and older have completed it in just over three hours.
This hike allows us to discover another side of Rilly. It can be done all year round as the paths are very passable, but it is best to avoid it when the sun is too strong as it is not shaded.
It's a bonus during the grape harvest and certainly in autumn.
Thank you.

A small mistake at the start: we turned left a little too early.
This hike should be avoided when it is too sunny, as there is little or no shade.
A very easy hike that we completed in 3½ hours instead of 4 hours (average walkers aged over 60).

Hello
Visorando's routes are independent of any signs you may find in the field. They may or may not follow all or part of a GR, GRP or PR route. The aim is to offer routes that do not exist, hence the description to follow and not the signs in the field (unless expressly stated).
Kind regards
