One of the highlights of the Louvent circuit is the Belladonna-Phoenix artwork by Amandine Guruceaga1. It is a copper, steel and brass sculpture that resembles a phoenix rising from the ashes. The metal flames are flexible and sensitive to wind, creating a sound that reverberates through the forest. The sculpture is located between a cherry tree and a beech tree, and reflects the sunlight with this brilliant plane.

Keep Warm Burnout by Jean-Pierre Brazs

Highlight • Monument

One of the highlights of the Circuit du Louvent is the work of art called Keep warm by Jean-Pierre Brazs. This sculpture consists of a colossal iron mask that hides a secret: a fireplace inside that can be lit by visitors. If you want to stay warm while hiking in the cold, you can stop by this artwork and enjoy the cozy fire. Just make sure you have some matches or a lighter with you, and don’t forget to put out the fire when you leave. You can find more information about this artwork and the trail here.

Vent des Forêts Art Trail

Highlight • Trail

It was in La Maison Vent des Forêts, at the end of the 90s, that the project to create a recognized art center in a rural environment was born.

For more than 26 years in the village of Lahaymeix, many creations have emerged and incredible artistic experiments have taken place all around the village and in the surrounding municipalities.

The place welcomes the walker or the cyclist before his hike and makes him discover the many works that dot the paths and the woods.

Each year over more than 45 kilometers, new works are exhibited on eight different circuits.
