A walk mainly on paths, along the Fausse, Charoin, Les Endiennes and Noyon valleys between Marennes and Villette-de-Vienne.

In rainy weather or after heavy rain, the path may be muddy or even impassable in places (not sure, to be checked). The end of the walk is not in the shade, so it can get hot in the sun.
