Location

In a harvested field in Billy-le-Vieux (Quincieux).

Participants

Expedition

I took the train from Lyon to Quincieux, then walked 4 kilometers, taking a small detour to avoid being on the main road. I crossed two hamlets named La Chapelle and Billy-le-Vieux and arrived to the coordinates, which were located in a vast harvested field surrounded by a large ditch.

After recording proof, I continued my path westwards, aiming for the next station on the railway line. According to Google, my path was supposed to go under a motorway. What Google had failed to tell me was that I should have brought a tunnel boring machine. So I had to turn back and find another route. Nonetheless I managed to reach Anse in time to take the train back to Lyon.
