This circuit is part of the FFVélo Haute-Corrèze mountain bike base, the largest mountain biking area in France with 1000 km of marked circuits. Leaving from the same starting point, the "Le Rocher de la Poule" circuit is a shortened version of this itinerary, while the most athletic can follow the "La Cime des Bois" circuit towards Chaverochette (allow 22 additional km). This circuit does not have any technical difficulty; it is suitable for a long, easy-going outing...
