Description of the walk

Car park in the village of Rocheservière near a school.

(S/E) Walk to the far end of the car park, pass the school and take Allée des Châtaigniers southwards until you reach Allée de la Pierre aux Lutins.

(1) Turn right and head down towards the field to reach the banks of the River Boulogne (rivière) – a tributary of the Acheneau. Follow the riverbank, turning left.

(2) You can take this first bridge for a shorter walk, or continue along the path, passing behind the rock and following the riverbank to the second bridge.

(3) Cross the bridge and keep to the right to continue the walk through the lower part of the field. At this point, you can continue towards the Dorinière path. Before crossing the bridge, you can join a small track.
Leave the field and continue your walk along the riverbank until you reach the first houses in Rocheservière and come to some steps on the left.

(4) Continue your walk towards the village of Rocheservière by climbing the steps on the left. Follow Rue du Péplu (D7), which crosses the river, then turn right. Walk past the town hall to reach the car park (S/E).

Very pretty autumn scenery, full of colours and nature. Rocheservière is a beautiful town for family walks.

On the second bridge crossing the Boulogne, we were unable to continue the hike because the fields had been electrified, making it impossible to follow the path. We had to turn back and cross at the first bridge.
