Close to Lichére, a short detour to the unmissable village of Aunac sur Charente, a relaxing break with all shops: bakery, pastry shop, bar, restaurant, general food with local products, butcher, delicatessen, camping, canoeing, guinguette!!

Wooden ferry from Lichères, which allows you to cross the Charente. A cable stretched across both banks allows hikers to cross the waters independently. Please note, the ferry may be immobilized during the harshest winter months. You will then have to return to the bridge, a little further south.

This abbey, also called Notre-Dame and Saint Benoît, is a former Benedictine abbey. The imposing square tower at the entrance served as a warehouse for valuables. Upon entering, you discover beautiful gardens. Its origin dates back to Carolingian times. It reached its peak during the 11th and 12th centuries. Guided tours are organized in summer.

This isolated church was built in the 8th century and is a good example of Romanesque architecture. After partially collapsing in the 18th century, it was restored in 1907 after being listed as a historical monument in 1903.
