Just a few hundred metres from the village, a 2 km family stroll through a typically Limousin landscape in the Vallon du Rimaury (a tributary of the Gartempe) reveals a well-presented vernacular heritage. Low dry-stone walls (to demarcate plots of land) rehabilitated by Chantiers des Chemins Jacquaires, heel path (to guide cattle in single file from one field to another), flying staircase, plank bridge (stone slabs to cross over the stream). A line of large oak trees, the Rimaury stream and a signposted interpretation trail (designed by PALOMA) educate walkers about the region?s flora and fauna (endangered fruit trees, local plants). Wooden furniture (benches, tables, fences, bridges) blends seamlessly into the landscape. An adjoining arboretum completes this beautiful ensemble.
