Somewhere in the forest we took a wrong turn as our routedescription was written in French and our French only consists out of "Bonjour", "Au Revoir" and "Oui" or "Non". But we ended up on the right track again after a few hundred metres.

So don't be afraid if suddenly our GPS-track takes a turn to the left at a small crossing and the only thing you can see ahead is an impenetrable forest. Instead of following our track, just follow the path until the next crossing and turn left there. It is that simple.

The forest is absolutely beautiful and you will be all alone.



The track passes some open fields with views to small towns, a few anxious cows, and a summer cottage with small lake.





Hope you enjoyed the photo's of our walks in this part of France. We will definitely return here.

The track goes along a small water called "Canal de la petite eau". We came across this small bunker which in summertime must be difficult to spot. Also a fallen tree blocked our path but we managed to cross it. As you can see the path is still boggy but with good walkingshoes is should not be a problem.



Roxy checked frequently whether we were still around and if we took the correct path. Finally the path ends at a crossing and takes you to a wooden bridge.



On the way back you can see the small lake "Etang de la Motte" and will walk along the shore of lake "Etang de la Vieille Forge". And along that path there is also a prayer place, called "Roche de la Vierge".



At the end of the lake there is a nice picnic area with a lovely view towards the lake.



From here it is just a short distance to the car. Roxy enjoyed the walk very much, just as we did. As we were nearing a road we put her on a leash, but ofcourse this turned out not to be necessary as there was not one single car. We should have known by now.



Like stated before, a pleasant stroll for us and the dog.
