LE GRAND SENTIER DE SCÉVOLLES

This trail, which starts at the Guesnes pond, takes you through the Scévolles forest. Discover the Fondoire hunting lodge, evidence of ^19th-century hunting with hounds, or the little Acadian hut. You'll come close to the cavities of the old Chanteloup quarries. Pass the Beaumont estate, La Briande and the washhouse. Follow part of the Ligne Verte, the old railroad line between Loudun and Châtellerault, then return through the forest.
