Stages

  1. Stage 1 - N°1

    At the Place de L’Église, take the path up the hillside into the forest. Bear right at the fork, cross over the avenue then turn left at the forest edge and descend the hill. At the fork continue right and carry on until you reach Culoiseau. Instructions to follow when crossing the estate: do not shout, do not stray from the itinerary even if the gate is open, keep dogs on a leash (a suckling cow can become aggressive if it is frightened).
