Presentation of: Parcours Monts et Marches "Histoires geologiques"

The Saint-Léonard-des-Bois site allows us to retrace the 600 million years of history that formed the rocks and shaped the landscape. Two loops, to be explored successively or independently, form a 10 kilometers circuit that will take you back in time. Following the pebbles of the Saint-Léonard paths, you'll climb the peaks of the Alpes Mancelles and discover some of the turbulent episodes in a geological history spanning almost 600 million years.
