Monotrace in the Forêt des Abbayes🤗

Highlight (Segment) • Other

A well-marked single track, although it tends to close up a little in the spring. Perhaps a little more difficult in the section towards the St Lunaise/Levet road.

And there you have it, a 200th that we didn't see go by... since we were in the fog. Too bad, it's a nice outing, without difficulty with forest, farm track and some single tracks... and even a restaurant at the finish to have a drink or a bite to eat. Be careful, at km26, after the Chavannes marshes, there …

A tour south of Châteauneuf-sur-Cher with the Chavannes marshes as our destination, passing through Corquoy, Lapan and the ever-beautiful Soudrain forest. A quiet tour on good paths except for the Marsh. Indeed, a tree across the path restricted the passage and the reeds took advantage of this to reach a good height, making progress difficult for about fifty meters.

And yes, it's growing on the paths... luckily there are kind souls to prepare the ground for us! A varied circuit, without difficulty, rolling at this time of year. We've already known the much richer marshes...

Beautiful route, the paths have dried well, still a few greasy passages to remind me of the last hike 😉

From the classic today with an early start
Rolling and pleasant circuit 👍
