    Start at the Plan d’eau de Saint-Joseph-de-Rivière and head towards the ponds. When you reach the middle of the first pond, turn right onto the paved "chemin de la tournerie." After a few meters, turn left to reach the stadium, where a water point is available. Exit the stadium through the green gate, then take two consecutive right turns to join the "Via Chartreuse" greenway. Follow this path for 1 kilometer until you intersect with "route de la Tuilerie." At this point, you can choose to turn left for a short round trip to explore the Tuilerie area or continue straight ahead along the route. After approximately 500 meters, a bridge on your right will allow you to cross to the opposite bank and begin your return journey. Upon reaching the intersection with the "route de la Tuilerie" again, turn left onto the road. After the washhouse, take the school road to the right, then turn right again after the bridge onto the "chemin de la tournerie." Follow the path in the opposite direction to return to the ponds.
