Park in the panoramic car park signposted just after the car park for the Solutré-Pouilly Archaeological Museum.
(S/E) Head towards the museum to reach the start of the path to the Roche de Solutré.
(1) Continue along the path on the left, where plenty of signposts will easily guide you to the summit of the Roche de Solutré.
(2) Turn left for a return trip to the summit. Enjoy the view of the Roche de Vergisson, which is the next challenge.
(3) Roche de Solutré. Retrace your steps along the same path to quickly reach a junction signposted Vergisson.
(2) Walk gently down to the left through the woods to the village of Vergisson. Halfway there, you can take a short detour to the left to the Chancerons menhir. Reach the Vergisson wash house.
(4) Head back up into the village and cross it on the left. On leaving the village, turn onto the first path on the right, walk through the vineyards and join, on the right-hand side, the path that climbs to the summit of the Roche de Vergisson (well signposted).
(5) Go round the summit on the left to reach another junction.
(6) Stay on the path on the right for a return trip to the summit of the Roche de Vergisson. Enjoy the view whilst taking in the distance covered.
(7) Roche de Vergisson. Retrace your steps to the previous crossroads.
(6) Take the path opposite to cut through the vineyards and reach the houses of Combe Poncet. Pass south of Combe-Poncet. Continue along this wide track and, at the 410m mark indicated on the IGN map, find a new farm track on the left.
(8) Take this path and follow it alongside the vineyards. The path ends on a tarmac road at the first houses of Vers la Croix. At the crossroads in the bend, keep to the right. Follow the Impasse du Puye, which leads to a forest track.
(9) Begin a gentle climb through the chestnut forest until you reach a junction. Head back down due south along the path on the left. Cross the Denante and, after the hairpin bend, you’ll come to another junction of paths. At the junction, turn right.
(10) Take the path on the left along the vineyards, skirting the Gorge au Loup. Enter another vineyard via the path on the left. Cross it to reach the Roman road.
(11) Turn right, heading due south, to return to the car park where you started (S/E).
