In the footsteps of the potters of yore, starting from the Musée Le Placitre

(S/E) From the car park at the Ger Ceramics Museum – Ger Creative Centre, head to the crossroads, turn left towards Ger, pass under a power line and you’ll come to a bend in the road.

(1) Just before the bend, take the sunken path that climbs to the right after the large field. Follow the path to a junction of field entrances. Take the path on the left and you’ll reach the Route du Château d’eau.

(2) Cross it and walk past the water tower. Continue straight on, passing Les Échauguettes, La Butte au Moine and La Mare au Franc.

(3) After the Mare au Franc, do not follow the sunken path that goes straight on, but continue along the tarmac road that bends to the right. Then follow the sunken path on the right. You’ll arrive at the Champ Duval. You’ll be passing through private property, but there is a right of way. Make sure you close both gates properly so that the dog doesn’t escape. You can take a detour to the left to see the bricks used in the kilns and reused to construct buildings.

(4) Retrace your steps and rejoin the sunken path as it climbs.

(5) When you reach a junction of sunken paths, turn left and carry on straight ahead to L’Être au Lièvre

(6) Turn right and follow the D60 for 100 m, then turn left towards l’Être au Franc.

(7) After the house on the right, take the sunken lane on the right to L’Être Chevalier and rejoin the D60.

(8) Follow it to the left and rejoin the outbound route at the water tower.

(2) Turn left and follow the route back along the same path as on the way there until you reach the car park (S/E).

When the museum is closed, you can park in the tarmac car park. When the museum is open, please leave the spaces for visitors and park in the field opposite.

Picnic table in the museum car park, freely accessible all year round.

When the museum is open, you can fill your water bottle at reception.

Walking shoes recommended.

There are quite steep inclines.
