Step by step
Departure: The most complicated part is finding the parking lot! To get there, take the tarmac road out of the hamlet of Masserange towards Saint Jean d'Hérans. At the large hairpin bend, follow the track north for a few hundred metres to the “Les Vignes” parking area.
1) At the end of the parking lot, follow the little path which climbs gently towards “Marigot”.
2) At “Marigot”, turn left towards “Arboretum”. Take in the sights and sounds of the various tree species.
3) To return, retrace your steps to “Marigot”, then follow the signs for “les Vignes de Masserange”.
4) At the “Vignes de Masserange” post, take the right-hand track to your starting point.
