Proceed up Vallée des Vaux past the Harvest
Barn, taking the third left into the lane marked Vailde des Vaux
(which becomes Rue du Vieux Moulin). Turn left at the very top of
the hill (Rue de la Hauteur), left again at the T-junction (Rue
de la Garenne), then first right and immediately left into Rue Becq.
At the next crossroads fork left (Rue de Brabant)
past the Little Loft Art Gallery and Brabant Riding Stables on your
right, and the back of Trinity Manor. Turn right at the junction
of Rue de Brabant and Rue des Monnidres. Pallot’s Steam Museum
is on the left at this junction.
Turn right at the end of the lane, then shortly
after left and immediately left again into Rue du Feugerel. Cross
over the main St John’s Road, right at the T-junction (Chemin
de Hérupe) and second right down the hill into the ‘green
lane’ (Rue du Pont). Notice the fine 18th century properties
in this lane; the last one on the left is a ‘cod house’
marked by the pineapples on the gate posts.
Cycle straight across the next crossroads, then
right at the main road and immediately left into a short leafy lane.
At the end turn right (Mont Mado, B52) and follow the main road
for a short distance until the second turning on the left, Rue de
la Mare des Prés. Be careful at the next junction; carry
straight on into Rue des Barraques if you want to take the detour
into Bonne Nuit Bay, where you will find cafés and restaurants.
The road brings you back up on to our route, but is a very steep
climb.
If not, turn sharp right here (still La Rue de La
Mare des Prés, becoming Rue des Platons).
There are now no turnings for about 1.5 miles (2.5
km). Just near the BBC radio masts is the highest point of the Island
at 149 metres. There are some lovely tracks for walks in this area
amongst the valleys and along the coast.
At Rue du Tas du Geon (C97), the turning off along
La Vieille Charrière will take you down into Bouley Bay again,
this has a steep descent.
At the end of Rue du Tas du Geon, by the Le Vesconte
Memorial, turn left into Rue de la Petite Falaise (C96), past the
Bouley Bay Hotel.
Keep to the right and turn first left in the direction
of Rozel, Route d’Olivet (C95). The second on the left takes
you to Jardin d’Olivet, which on a clear day offers excellent
views of the Normandy Coast.
Continue towards Rozel along Rue des Bouillons.Turn
right at the next T-junction into Rue du Pot du Rocher (ignore the
road on the right prior to this) and at the next crossroads is the
Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust. Cross over into Rue de La Piéce
Mauger. Turn first right into Rue de la Fosse. Turn left after half
a mile (1.3 km) into Rue des Camps Rault.
