A lovely route, though with a few too many narrow roads – fortunately with no traffic apart from the odd vehicle – and some steep, muddy sections both uphill and downhill.(Please note: the Chemin des Crouteaux is closed; you’ll need to head back up the D54 to reach Dressy. Otherwise, it’s perfect – thanks to the route planner.)
