Autour de bois Lambert

Colour code: Blue

This walking trail takes you along wooded sunken paths through the communes of Le Givre, Moutiers-les-Mauxfaits and Le Bernard.

Starting from the church in Le Givre, it takes you to the Chantemerle viewpoint, then to La Passagère, before crossing the ford over the Troussepoil. This stream runs alongside the path for 50 metres. The wooded sunken path runs alongside the private estate of Bois Lambert and the O’Fun Park adventure park.

In Moutiers-les-Mauxfaits, the circuit takes you past the 12th-century church and the market halls, 200 metres north of the church, then past a wash house below the village. The climb up the Chemin des Biques near the Huchegrolle lake reveals the granite outcrops marking the edge of the Armorican Massif.

After crossing the departmental road via an overhang, the long sandy path leads you towards Le Bernard. On the left, Bois Lambert Castle (*Private property) is visible in the woods.

Passing through a small patch of woodland takes you back across the departmental road (heavy traffic in summer) to continue along the edge of Bois Lambert.

In the distance, the bell tower of Le Givre guides you on your return journey. The descent takes you to another ford across the Troussepoil. After the footbridge, the steep climb back up to the church marks the end of this 10 km walk.
