BOUCLE DES RUISSEAUX (N°5)

The commune of Saint-Aignan-de-Couptrain is the starting point for two circuits that will take you through an unspoilt landscape of hedged farmland.

From the square in St-Aignan-de-Couptrain, head towards Javron-les-Chapelles. At the calvary, follow the road to the right. At La Ratterie, turn left into the lane which continues along a track leading up to the D242. Cross the road and join a track leading to the D3. Turn left and then right as far as La Hérissière. Pass under the old railway bridge and turn right up a byroad. At 500m, a track on the right leads to La Tramblaie. Turn left before the junction with the D3, which is reached one kilometre further along by a track on the right. Cross the D3. Crossroads of two tracks. Leave the Dreurie on your left. Go straight on, down a path paved with natural slabs of schist. Arrive at La Monnerie. Go to the village via Haute then Basse Chabossière.
