From the church, go up the street and go past the town hall (Place du Témois). In the square, take the asphalt road down to the left.
From the car park of the church, go in a southeasterly direction until the Mairie (Place du Témois). Take the street that goes down to the left. Leave Vaux-lès-Mouzon leaving two recent houses on the left and descend towards the plain by a degraded road (fields and meadows). At the T-junction, turn right. At the entrance of Sailly, take the first street in the continuation of the tarred road and go along the stadium on the left, then straight ahead. In front of the water tower, turn right and follow the cemetery on the left. At the last vegetable garden (on the left), turn right onto a paved road that goes up, turn after a barn (turn right: the Blanchampagne farm, formerly owned by the abbey of Orval). Enter the wood through an unpaved path. Continue on this road: the arrival at Vaux is marked by a hangar, on the right.
