Park in the car park near the Fresney-le-Puceux cemetery (Rue du Tourtout).
(S/E) From the car park, take Rue du Tourtout on the left, then continue along the small path that descends towards the Tourtout stream. Cross it, then climb the steep slope, cross thefirst path and then, atthe second, keep to the right to continue almost opposite. At the end of the path, take the sunken path and you will come to a road.
Turn left onto it, then turn right onto Impasse du Gué, then take the Gaugain path and cross the bridge over the Laize. Optionally, take a detour to the left for about 100 metres towards the hamlet of Gaugain to see the remains of the old Auguste Lefèvre tannery. After the bridge, turn right, follow the road, cross the hamlet of La Planche à la Housse, then continue straight ahead at the intersection with the road coming from the right for about 50 metres.
(2) Take the small grassy path on the left to climb up to the plateau; the slope is quite steep. At the gate marked "chasse gardée" (private hunting ground), go around the pasture and the forest on the left, cross the embankment and then walk along the fields on the right. At the path, turn left.
(3) Pass in front of the Ranch des Bruyères, an abandoned equestrian centre. At the intersection, keep to the left and continue almost straight ahead. You will then join the heritage trail. When you reach a fork, keep to the right and continue to follow the heritage trail. You will reach a place called Le Pissot after passing a large farm.
(4) Take the D132 road on the right, continue along the heritage trail, continuing between Laize on the left and the cliff on the right. Leave the Pissot path on the left, pass through the hamlet of Jouette, then in front of the Moulin de Tournebu and follow Laize.
(5) Turn left onto the D238B, cross the bridge, pass in front of the Moulin du Touchet, continue and, just before the bus stop, take the Ladres path on the right. Walk along Laize on your right. You will reach the junction with the D238C road at Pont de Fresney.
(6) Turn left and immediately take the Coteaux de Fresney path. Pass in front of the stadium, turn left, pass in front of the École du Cerisier and turn right. Then turn left, walk past the church, pass in front of the castle driveway, walk past the large farm and then turn right to return to the town hall car park (S/E).
