Les trois puys de Villard
Les paysages sur la vallée de la Creuse sont stupéfiants et variés. Vous verrez des cours d'eau, des forêts, le Moulin de Villard qui fonctionne encore, des vielles maison et des vaches (en saison). Bref un condensé de Creuse en une seule randonnée.
Mont de Transet and La Chaise à Thauron
This 5 km route, which links two villages, mainly follows very old rural paths, cleaned by volunteers from the Pierres et Nature de Thauron association: two recent forest tracks, created for the exploitation of conifer plantations, and a tarmaced communal road, which has a long history.
Through the Thaurion Gorges
Starting from Thauron, this is an easy walk that takes you along a small section of the magnificent Thaurion Gorges, then into the countryside.
In the footsteps of Martin Nadaud
Starting from the Martinèche car park, Martin Nadaud, the most famous mason in the Creuse, invites you to follow the paths of his childhood to discover the built and natural heritage of the commune of Soubrebost in half a day.
Along the Mourne to the Roches Mazuras
The first part of the circuit takes you along La Mourne, a lively little river with numerous waterfalls and cascades. The second part takes you through the Faux-Mazuras forest, and the third part finally takes you to the top of the Roches Mazuras, in a corner of moorland, where you can enjoy unobstructed views.
Les Pierres Civières
Hike in the Maupuy massif above Guéret. This route will allow you to discover magnificent views and the old granite quarries.
The hike is partly marked with yellow signs managed by the Monts de Guéret Tourist Office.
Circular route starting from the Parc aux Loups in Chabrières
This hike allows you to explore the northern slope of the Chabrières massif with numerous passages through the undergrowth and a passage near the Parc au Loups.
The Poirier Waterfall
This is an opportunity to discover a rather secret path leading to the impressive Poirier Waterfall. Here, the Thaurion becomes a bubbling river that bounces off large granite boulders. This walk will also take you across two footbridges over the Thaurion, between twin ponds, along paths through woods and undergrowth, and across meadows.
Le Puy de Gaudy
Between Guéret and Sainte-Feyre, this is a short, easy hike that allows you to discover the oppidum and the beautiful panorama from the summit of Puy de Gaudy.
Tour des Trois Cornes
This hike will take you to the Trois Cornes with its many viewpoints over the surrounding countryside.
The first part takes you around the foot of the Trois Cornes, leading you to the statue of Saint Valéry, then you will discover the various peaks from which you can observe the surrounding countryside before descending to the Étang de la Valette.
Here and there through Sous-Parsat
Starting from Sous-Parsat, this hike offers the opportunity to admire the amazing frescoes and stained glass windows of the village's Saint-Thomas Church, to stop at Mareilles in front of the "cylindrical" fountain and its pretty basin, and to walk through the undergrowth or across the bocage.
Circular des Bordes and Catheraud
This is a fairly steep and challenging ride for horses. It is fairly easy for riders, especially if they are comfortable with long climbs... Pretty scenery around Les Retouillères. It can be done in either direction, with the biggest climb being on the way to Catheraud on the Puy de Jabreilles side. The paths are quite rocky, so it's best to walk at a steady pace on this ride. The small roads you ride along are quiet, lined with trees and have beautiful verges.
Circular loop from Saint-Pardoux-Morterolles to the Augerolles waterfalls
A circular route starting from Saint-Pardoux-Morterolles that also allows you to discover the Cascades d'Augerolles site. This hike passes through meadows, woods, forests and the areas around the waterfalls. A few panoramic views, streams and a plank bridge complete the picture. It should be noted that the roads, where there are any, are forest roads, some paved and some unpaved, but in any case very little used.
The Champs de Pierres and Augerolles waterfalls
At the gateway to the Millevaches plateau, set off on a walk punctuated with information panels to discover a 50-hectare listed natural site.
From Fursac to Paulhac
Discover the charming village of Paulhac, with its Templar Commandery (Gothic church and chapel).
Banize and Thaurion, the enchanters
The banks of the Banize and Thaurion are truly enchanting! A visual treat that slows down your average speed: it's impossible not to stop repeatedly to contemplate the course of these two rivers, the balanced granite boulders or the mini waterfall that wants to play the big one.
The Glénic Viaduct Passage
A route to admire the Glénic viaduct from above before taking the tracks and sunken paths through woods and meadows.
Grande Cazine Pond
The Cazine ponds walking guide was produced in partnership with the Conservatoire d'Espaces Naturels and the local association A4P. It highlights the exceptional heritage around two ponds currently undergoing ecological conversion. The pleasant route alternates between distant views and the immediate surroundings of these wetlands. If possible, bring a smartphone with you to access the information provided along the route.
