From the car park, carefully cross the D 75 road (yellow marking) and reach the crossroads Monts des Yews.
- Follow the path to the right below the road and reach the head of the PETIT MACLU LAKE. Take the good stony path which successively runs along the lakes, namely the Petit Maclu, the Grand Maclu then which, after a small forest sector, leads to the edge of Lake Ilay before joining the Lake Road.
- Continue right along the path (white-red marking) to Lake Ilay.
- Continue along the right along the D 75 road (yellow marking), pass a pasture (barriers to contain livestock) and find below the road the grassy path which leads to the entrance to the village of Frasnois, at the crossroads Chemin des Bornes.
- Take the right path for 350 meters on the right, bordered by meadows. At the crow's feet, continue the path on the left which joins the D 75 road. Take a path on the right which emerges from the road to reach Mont des Yews.
Cross the road again (be careful) to find the Monts des Ifs car park.
Take care when crossing the road at the start, to reach the Mont des Ifs crossroads.
The wetlands surrounding the lakes are preserved and fragile natural spaces. Please do not leave the marked trails and respect the tranquility of the area.
Cows and horses maintain these areas and change pens during the season. These animals are very hardy: do not try to approach them or feed them, this could harm their health and your safety.
Wildflowers are beautiful, they can be rare and protected and often wilt quickly. Don't pick them! They will delight future hikers.
Please keep your dog on a leash if you have one.
