Two possible starting points:
- If you are arriving on foot, start at the bus stop at the exit of Quingey, heading towards Cessey (description).
- If you arrive by car, at the top of the Champs Lhoste housing estate (still on the outskirts of Quingey, towards Cessey), take the road that goes up to the right towards La Maridelle, continue straight ahead, pass under the RN83, continue to the entrance to the woods and park there. Then walk back down the same road to the bus stop mentioned above.
(S) Take the small path to the right of the bus stop (it descends to the left of the RD) and follow theGR® along the Loue. Continue on this main path (pass under the RN 83). The path then climbs back up towards Cessey. You will enter the village.
(1) Leave theGR® on your left and turn right towards Quingey, Ornans. At the village exit, continue to the crossroads with the Ornans road, cross straight ahead and head towards the farm. Follow the road to this place, cross it and head into the forest. On your left, you will see a chalet with a few dogs; this is the last house in the area.
(2) After about 50 metres, at the first three-way junction, turn left and follow the main path. Walk gently uphill and admire the beautiful forest! Continue along the main path, which then turns slightly to the right (do not follow the row of fir trees when you reach the top). You will arrive at your car if you parked there, otherwise continue along the road, pass under the RN83, and descend straight down through the housing estate via the chalet path to the bus stop.
