Guided steps

Cross the footbridge, then head just to the left to reach the trailhead, following the stream (the Foron).
1/ Enter the woods, and when you reach the second footbridge, continue straight ahead on the greenway toward Lake Flérier (a reservoir).
2/ Ride along the lake to get back to the road, then turn left; after a few meters, turn right and continue in that same direction on the path running alongside the fish farm.
3/ Then turn right, climb the short, steep hill, and ride past the farm to reach the road.
4/ At the intersection, turn right and continue along this road to reach the center of the village, where you can admire the chapel, the bread oven (still used for the Bread Festival on August 15), and the washhouse.
5/ Next, to complete the loop, take the road to the right of the washhouse.
6/ Continue straight ahead on this road to return to the forest.
7/ At the entrance to the woods, turn left immediately, then continue straight ahead along the banks of the Foron to return to the starting point near City Hall.
