Indications
From Bridge over the Saine take the direction of gyps. Then follow the Lemme valley along a beautiful path which will lead to the Etang des Perchettes. Continue until President Fir and turn right onto the path which goes up towards Cornu Road (you can also pass through the geological curiosity of the Grande Cheminée to reach the homonymous post). Then go back down the road and pass The Great Fireplace and Les Prés Grillets where a belvedere provides a view of the Val de Saine and the Syam valley. Then follow the ridge passing by a second belvedere and join the Foyard in Taiclet. Continue left via a white path then via a forest path which leads to a road along the Saine river. Then follow this road until you find the gyps and the starting point.
