I did it in the opposite direction and combined it with the ‘Between Lakes and Forest in Pléven’ route (https://www.visorando.com/randonnee-entr...) to make a 22.5 km hike.
As a result, I didn’t do the section between points 3 and 4.

A very pleasant route with very few people about, apart from the anglers along the Arguenon.

However, it’s best suited to seasoned walkers as it’s sometimes very technical, particularly on the eastern bank where it can be quite physically demanding. I don’t know if it’s cleared before the summer season, but there were also quite a few fallen trees (particularly near point 6, where I had difficulty getting through), and overall I regretted not having brought walking poles to help me keep my balance in certain sections.
