Park next to the church in Montigny-lès-Cherlieu.

(1) Follow the D45, pass the tennis courts and then turn left onto a road.
200m further on, at the top of the first hill, just before the tarmac-to-gravel boundary, take a forest path on the left (small ditch). Head towards the wayside cross at the top of the hill. Continue straight ahead. (Follow the Yellow Circle markings carefully along this path)
(2) Take a narrow track and cross a forest path. Continue down a small path to reach the Cherlieu stream.
