Park in the panoramic car park just past the Solutré-Pouilly archaeological museum.
(S/E) Follow the signs to the Roche de Solutré in the direction of the museum.
(1) Continue along the left-hand path, where numerous signs will take you to the summit of Roche de Solutré.
(2) Fork left for a return trip to the summit. Enjoy the view of Roche de Vergisson, the next challenge.
(3) Roche de Solutré. Retrace your steps along the same path to quickly reach an intersection indicating Vergisson.
(2) Descend gently to the left through the woods to the village of Vergisson. At the halfway point, you can make a short detour to the left and back, towards the Chancerons standing stones. Reach the Vergisson wash-house.
Go back up into the village and cross it on the left. As you leave the village, take the first right-hand path through the vineyards and join, on your right, the path that climbs to the top of Roche de Vergisson (well signposted).
(5) Go around the summit on the left to reach a new crossroads.
(6) Stay on the right-hand path to go up to the Roche de Vergisson summit before coming back. Enjoy the view as you measure the distance covered.
(7) Roche de Vergisson. Retrace your steps to the previous crossroads.
(6) Take the path opposite to cut through the vines to reach the Combe Poncet houses. Pass south of Combe Poncet. Continue along this wide track and, at map point 410, find a new farm track on the left.
(8) Follow it along the vineyards. The track becomes a tarmac road at the first houses of Vers la Croix. At the crossroads in the bend, keep right. Follow the impasse du Puye which leads to a forest track.
(9) Begin a pleasant climb through chestnut forest to a crossroads. Head due south down the left-hand path. Cross the Denante river and, after the hairpin bend, find a new crossroads of paths. At the crossroads, turn right.
(10) Turn left along the vineyard path, round the Gorge au Loup. Enter another vineyard on the left-hand path. Cross it to join Voie Romaine.
(11) Turn right, due south, back to the car park at the start (S/E).
