Park at the Parking des Chênes.
The route is well signposted (posts at the main changes of direction and yellow markings).
(S/E) Head towards the church via Avenue Édouard Aynard, go round it and continue along the avenue in the same direction. Walk alongside a park for another 200 m opposite the fire station.
(1) At the end of the park, turn right onto Chemin de Grandvaux, and continue straight on after the roundabout.
(2) Enter the castle grounds and take the path on your left, staying more or less parallel to Chemin du Trouillat until you reach the end of the sports field.
(3) At the “Le Calabert” signpost, turn left towards Chemin des Rivières.
(4) At the signpost marked “Chemin des Rivières”, head towards Fontville by following the path on the right. The path continues as a road that winds its way to the junction of Chemin de Fontville and Chemin de la Verdoyure.
(5) Take this road on the left. It is a dead-end road that continues as a path. At the end of the path, turn left. A bridge allows you to cross the Ruisseau des Planches.
(6) At the signpost marked “Les Flachères”, turn right towards “Jansavon”. At the fork in the paths, follow the one going uphill to the left. Pass quickly under the railway line, then follow it before taking the road on the left. Turn right at the first road, Chemin du Siroux, and follow it to the end. Then turn right onto Chemin d’Écully. You will cross over the Rivière des Planches again.
(7) Just after the river, take Chemin des Planches on the left and walk alongside a pond on your right.
(8) At the “Jansavon” signpost, continue along the path on the right and stay on this main path for a good kilometre.
(9) At the “Sivu de Serres et des Planches” signpost, stay at the edge of the woods (do not enter the town) and continue to follow the yellow markings.
(10) When you reach the road, turn right and cross the railway line, then turn right again immediately afterwards. After 200 m, cross the Ruisseau de Serre via a wooden bridge, then go through a wooden gate, moving away from the river. After a few hundred metres, the path turns into a road and begins to run alongside houses. Continue straight on until you reach the junction.
(11) Turn right onto Chemin de Pontet et Crases. The road winds between an industrial estate on one side and a nature reserve on the other. You will gradually enter the town. At the Cinq Chemins roundabout, continue straight ahead. At the next roundabout, continue for 50 m along Chemin de Calabert.
(12) At the signpost for “Les Calettes”, take the path towards Écully. Walk past the École Paul Bocuse, then the sports ground on one side, and the Étang des Calettes on the other.
(3) At the signpost marked “Le Calabert”, you rejoin the route taken on the way out but now follow it in the opposite direction; climb the steps on the left to enter the castle grounds. Leave the grounds via the entrance where the walk began.
(2). Take the road on the right to the roundabout, then continue straight on along Chemin de Grandvaux.
(1) Go round the park and follow Avenue du Docteur Terver to the church. The car park is just past it on the right (S/E).
