The route starts from the car park at the Foyer Rural in Baye. To get there, from the D951, follow signs for Andecy, turning left just before the castle when approaching from the north. It is a new building with a large car park.
(S/E) From the car park, take Rue de Mourlin towards Andecy.
(1) At the small bridge, continue straight on along the narrow road that follows the stream.
(2) When you reach a farm, turn right onto the path that leads into the woods (if you want to take a look at Andecy Abbey, walk a hundred metres further along the road and then retrace your steps). Once in the woods, at the fork, take the path on the left. Follow the old CBR for a few hundred metres; you can see the drainage works running alongside the path. At the next two junctions, continue straight ahead.
(3) Once you reach the edge of the woods, turn left towards the Ferme de la Cense Rouge. When you reach the D343, turn right and follow this small road until you can see the first houses of Congy.
(4) Where the wall marking the boundary of Congy Castle’s grounds begins, take the path on the right that leads into the woods (those wishing to see the castle should continue straight on for 200m, then retrace their steps).
This path follows theGRP®, but it is not always clearly signposted. After 400m, turn right, staying on the main path. At the hunting lodge, continue straight ahead.
(5) As you come out of the woods, turn left, then follow the small road to the right. Pass in front of the Ferme du Buisson and follow the small road to the first houses in Villevenard. Pass a small menhir by the roadside on the left-hand side.
(6) Take the first tarmac road on the right (Rue Chauffours). It runs alongside the vineyards.
(7) Where the path turns sharply left, turn right onto the track leading into the woods. Follow it to a clearing.
(8) Turn left at the sign indicating a change of direction. Follow this path through the woods to the crossroads.
(9) Turn right and rejoin the CBR route (path on a raised embankment). After the small bridge, turn left. The car park is now in sight (S/E).
