Azay-le-Ferron walks

This hike starts at the Renaissance castle of Azay-le-Ferron and takes you into the heart of the Preuilly forest. It offers some unexpected points of interest: a monument dedicated to the Resistance, a pond nestled in the undergrowth and glimpses of the Haute-Touche animal park.

Welcome to the third largest commune in Touraine: Bossay-sur-Claise. Its vast territory offers a beautiful diversity of landscapes, including fields, forests, clearings and valleys, with a pink castle as the highlight!

The Bellebouche Pond is one of the oldest, largest and most beautiful bodies of water in the Brenne Regional Nature Park. A small part is reserved for water sports, but most of it is a natural site that you can admire at your leisure with binoculars from three observatories around the pond.

Leaving Bridoré, with its lake and impressive castle, you set off on a walk across the plateau overlooking the Indre valley. In the middle of the fields, the wide open spaces offer beautiful views of a castle in the distance or simply the green Indre valley.

This walk takes you to several ponds around Rosnay, in the heart of the Brenne Regional Nature Park. The paths are often lined with hedges known as bouchures in this region.

This very pleasant hike starts on the left bank of the Creuse River in Fontgombault. It takes you to the site of the Saint-Julien Chapel and its caves, which date back to the hermit Gombaud in the 11th century. The trail then runs along impressive limestone cliffs. After passing through the village of Le Village du Bois, you arrive at Lurais and its beach. You then cross to the right bank to reach Preuilly-la-Ville and the mysterious Bois des Dubes. Finally, you will discover the unmissable Fontgombault Abbey.

This pleasant hike takes you from the banks of the Gartempe to the outskirts of Angles-sur-l'Anglin via the plateau, passing by the superb Château de la Brosse.

A short route to explore outside the village centre with beautiful passages through the undergrowth and lovely panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The village of Coussay-les-Bois is notable for its bell tower, which you can see after your walk.

Leaving Saint-Hippolyte, you set off on a short loop through the countryside. After a short stretch beside the Indre, you'll wind your way through the fields to discover a number of hamlets, as well as the woods overlooking the village.

Set off to explore the villages of Saint-Jean and Saint-Germain, separated by the Indre but united by an ordinance since 1834 to form Saint-Jean-Saint-Germain. You will discover a varied heritage, marked by the history of the area, but also by the river, and you will pass from the valley to agricultural areas dotted with hamlets and farms.

The trail runs under the cool shade of Brenne's largest forest, then crosses flower-filled meadows dotted with buttons and ponds. This is an introductory walk through a land of scents that also displays an extraordinary palette of colours!

On this route, after a section exploring the heritage of the market town of Perrusson, you'll head off to explore the countryside. Woods, fields, open countryside, geological curiosities and finally wet meadows - this is a programme that should please walkers looking for a variety of atmospheres.

From the village of Perrusson, you will set off on a circuit along the eastern side of the Indre valley. The green meadows along the river will give way to fields and woods, dotted with hamlets and villages where life is good. Keep your eyes peeled, as the narrow streets and valleys sometimes hide some lovely surprises...

This pleasant walk takes you to several ponds in the Brenne Regional Nature Park, ending at the banks of the Creuse River with a beautiful view of the Château de Romefort.

Are you a fan of old buildings? This route starting from Cussay is made for you!

Let yourself be charmed by the houses and the scents of nature in an unspoilt landscape.

The paths of La Chapelle-Blanche-Saint-Martin will take you in the footsteps of the Bishop of Tours, whose name the commune took in 1918. Across fields and through small hamlets, set off in search of a miraculous fountain.
