An easy circuit in the heart of the ancient woodland of the Chaleix woods.
This circuit is part of the FFVélo Haute-Corrèze mountain bike base, the largest mountain bike area in France with its 1000 km of marked circuits. This circuit is accessible to all, rolling, with two slightly more technical passages. Very pleasant route on undergrowth paths, following the Vézère at the start. Ideal for a family stroll on a hot summer day.
