Marcilly-en-Gault walks

From one pond to another, around Marcilly-en-Gault, the walk can be enjoyed by the whole family in all seasons. It allows you to savour the charm of still waters where nature abounds.

La Marolle-en-Sologne, a Sologne village with its landscapes of forests, ponds and châteaux, combines historical heritage and game-rich lands. The route passes by the 18th-century Château de la Giraudière and the village of Villeny with its brick and timber houses. The return journey is via theGR® de Pays de Sologne.

A lovely circular route entirely through the forest with varied and very quiet paths. Ideal for nature lovers.

The highlight of this walk is the magnificent Château du Mesnil, an exceptional site thanks to the beauty of its buildings, which watch over the Muids forest in the heart of the Sologne region. The path crosses a wide variety of landscapes: plains, oak and pine forests, and birch forests. The hike ends in the territory of a commune that no longer exists: La Motte Bonneville.

A beautiful walk that begins on wide, well-maintained paths and then enters the heart of the Sologne region via wilder, less frequented paths.

A superb walk. The varied landscapes of this circular route, including forests, meadows, ponds and the banks of the Sauldre Canal, make for a very pleasant walk.

This is an iconic route in Pierrefitte-sur-Sauldre, a village in the Sologne region renowned for its game-rich forests, ponds and brick architecture. The Étang des Césars, remarkable for its size and rich wildlife, inspires tranquillity.

Bauzy, a pretty village with Sologne characteristics, invites you to discover its paths and its secret heritage: manor houses, large stately homes and small châteaux.

Neuvy, at the gates of the Domaine de Chambord, lies in the heart of the Boulogne Forest. This is a great walk for families to observe the large animals of the forest and the many birds on the Étang de Montperché lake.

The commune of Ligny-le-Ribault, which has preserved many communal paths, offers this magnificent hike in the Sologne region of ponds, home to deer, roe deer and wild boar.

La Ferté-Saint-Cyr has preserved its many communal paths, all of which are marked and mostly protected from motorised vehicles. This circular route takes you along a variety of paths, skirting meadows, woods and ponds, before entering the heart of the forest, an ideal place for wildlife watching. The unique feature of this circular route is that it crosses the Cosson river twice, first via a narrow bridge and then via the Gué du Moulin Lauray ford; as you can imagine, you will need to take off your shoes.

During this walk, you will see numerous ponds that are bird sanctuaries (herons, ducks, etc.), the Veillas stream and its fords, the typical brick castle of Les Rhuys, and perhaps large wild animals in this region of Sologne, which is rich in game.

Forests and ponds stretch out around La Ferté-Saint-Cyr, a typical village in the wooded and game-rich Sologne region, which has preserved its vast network of communal paths.

Starting from Ménestreau, a typical village with red brick houses, this route aims to bring back memories of a huge forest with a variety of tree species, in the heart of the Sologne region of ponds.

This hike aims to revive memories of a vast, partly forgotten forest that once stretched across the present-day communes of Saint-Cyr-en-Val, Marcilly-en-Villette and Ménestreau-en-Villette. It ends in a riot of colour during the rhododendron flowering season (May to June), when the undergrowth around the Château de Villette is covered with these flowers.

Like many villages in the Sologne region, Crouy-sur-Cosson combines forest landscapes, ponds and architectural heritage. The first part of the walk takes place on wide paths on the edge or in the heart of the forest; the second part is more varied, dotted with ponds, the Cosson river, grassy paths and hamlets.

This circular route is very representative of the Sologne region, with its forests covered in moss, heather and ferns, its paths that are sometimes wide and straight, sometimes winding, grassy or muddy, its ponds and its brick houses, all of which contribute to its charm.

Starting from Souvigny, a village that has remained close to its history with its remarkable church with a caquetoir, this is a walk through woods and moors to discover the architecture of the Sologne region.
