Description of the walk

(S/E) From the co-operative winery, walk through the village. At the first junction (Route du Château d’eau), the route veers slightly to the right; then, at the second junction (Route des Terrois), it veers to the left (the signpost is situated against a low wall).

(1) At the signpost, turn right into the vineyards. Fields and woodland give way to vineyards. After a climb, hidden amongst the deciduous trees, you’ll find a pidgeon hunting hut.

(2) Head slightly left onto the D233, continue for 400 metres and turn left towards Talon and La Motte.

(3) Leave the tarmac road and take a vineyard track through the vines.

(4) You are still amongst the vineyards. Near an old building, turn left at the right-hand corner, then head down into the Bois de l’Ousilière. Continue downhill through woods and coppice.

(5) At the road, turn left. After La Graula, cross a stream.

(1) Complete the circular route at the signpost by following the outward route back to the winery (S/E).

A nice, easy walk, done in the rain, though it was a bit monotonous through the vineyards… probably better on a sunny day… combined with a visit to the Château de Duras in the afternoon… which made for a lovely day…!

A lovely little walk, best done quickly when it’s very hot, and then finding somewhere to have lunch......
...following the nearby Camino de Santiago route... we were once again pleasantly surprised to see some very pretty little deer
