Along the Creuse – trail no.11

The trail weaves its way through the Creuse valley, climbing the hillside before running alongside the river on the Greenway. As you make your way over St-Gaultier viaduct, you'll be treated to a stunning view over the village and the old priory. Mills and châteaux dot the way.

Description

This is one of three trails along the River Creuse via the "Voie Verte", an old railway which has been converted into a safe cycle path. Begin your ride at Saint-Gaultier by admiring a delightful little church and then climb the gentle hillside on the left bank through fields of crops dotted with traditional stone villages and small private châteaux. The tree-shaded stretch of the "Voie Verte" between Chitray and Rivarennes is particularly pleasant. We recommend that you spare your calf muscles by following the trail in the direction described – this way the only steep bit comes after Rivarennes.
