Gençay walks
Around Saint-Maurice-la-Clouère
A short half-day walk along the Clouère.
This walk follows sections of two other local walks: “From La Motte to Machecou” and “The Effarvate Trail”.
From Château-Larcher to the Airlait dolmen
A pleasant walk on both sides of the Clouère, offering the chance to explore the Thorus plateau and the Arlait dolmen, to visit the Camp Alaric caves and Baptresse with its rich heritage, and to finish at the magnificent historic town of Château-Larcher. In particular, see its Lantern of the Dead, a former priory, its church (the former castle chapel), a manor house, etc.

Starting from the Jardin du Prieuré de Laverré
The route is in the commune of Aslonnes, between the Jardin du Prieuré de Laverré, the springs and the dolmen.
With this route mapped out on Visorando, you will often be off the beaten track, so there are no signposts.
