Description of the walk

Start: Coming from Fontaine or Chagny, enter Rully, follow the signs to Agneux, go through the hamlet and up the narrow road to the pass; you're on the site of the caves, park at the pass exit near the lagoon. This is where the hike begins.

(S/E) Go around the lagoon and follow along the boxwood on the right for about ten metres, where a poorly marked path climbs to the top of the cliff - follow it never going back down until you see the GR® marking on the left. Follow the GR®76 as far as Bouzeron, then descend to the lowest point in the area until you reach a large fountain.

(1) Turn right, then take a path on the left that climbs straight up alongside a vineyard.
Now take the path through the box trees, which is still the GR®76, and follow it to the top of the hill.

(2) Take the GRP® Au Fil des Vignes et Vallée which starts on your left. From here, you'll head downhill towards Valotte, which you'll cross. Take the asphalt road on your right, which runs alongside a large wall.

(3) A little further on, turn left and follow the GRP® markings, then left again on a stony track that will take you to the stubble field. At the stubble field, continue straight ahead along the path, ignoring the crossroads. You'll come to the Neolithic site, cross it as far as the Redoute (redoubt), then take the steeply sloping path.

(4) Turn left onto a track which takes you to Bercully. Cross the country to reach the other side, on the road you'll see a small, poorly-marked path which descends to the left onto a tarmac road.

(5) Turn right and follow this road for a few hundred metres, then take the wide track on your left and follow it in a straight line as far as Nantoux.

(6) Follow the GRP°°®° markings which will take you directly to your car(S/E).
