The walk starts and ends at the car park of the Auberge de Leignecq, where you can easily park your car. There is a sign at the top of the car park to help you find your way before setting off.
(S/E) The walk starts at the top of the car park. Follow the yellow and green arrows and markers, heading right with the car park behind you, then turning right at the bend. Continue along a grassy path until you reach a road.
