An easy walk through the national forest, with beautiful views over the bocage.

Guidebook with maps/step-by-step :

Étape 1 : Turn right (view of the bocage). Cross the D988 in the direction of ‘les Bétules’. At the sign for ‘les Bétules’, take the track on the right, passing under the power line. At the road, go straight ahead, leaving the track on your right. At the house, continue along Route des Palombes until you reach a T-junction.

Étape 2 : Turn left and then right onto rue des Fioloux. At the left-hand bend, leave this road and go straight ahead on the track, ignoring a track on the left, and turn right onto a grassy track leading downhill. At the crossroads with several paths, continue downhill on this main path until you come to a stone cross at the bottom of the ‘captages’ road in the hamlet of ‘les Crouzons’.
