A multifaceted circuit, typical of the Haut-Corrézian landscapes.
This circuit will delight cyclists in search of paths that reflect the image of the Haute-Corrèze, such as paths through the extensive deciduous forests, winding roads, beautiful forest tracks, meadow edges and the chance to ride through charming hamlets.
With moderate gradients, it will delight amateurs as much as the most experienced, eager to discover this beautiful corner of Corrèze without too much difficulty.
Two shorter circuits (Maison à Tourelles and Les Abesses) will delight beginners.

    Small patrimony

    Traditional winch and peg wells

    This type of well is not very common in the Haute-Corrèze because the water table is not as deep as in the north of the Limousin. It consists of a wooden structure that supports the winch and peg system.
