Beautiful, recommended walk. Small problem: the indicated right turn at km 6.44 is a non-accessible private road. Simply continue and turn right at km 7.32 to find the proposed road again after +/- 150 m (uphill).

Pretty village typical of the region with several shops, cafes and restaurants. All that remains are the ramparts and two partially preserved buildings of the Moulins-Engilbert castle which dates from the 10th to the 15th centuries.
