Hello
A lovely little walk not far from my parents’ home. It’s a shame I didn’t discover it sooner!
Well worth a visit if you’re in this part of Corrèze
Kind regards

I’m really unhappy because the path has been dug up by a machine used for felling trees. There used to be trees there – it was lovely – but now everything’s been torn up. The paths are in a right state in places, to the point where you could twist your ankle, and it’s not certain whether the emergency services could even get there. Or perhaps in a 4x4, but not a VSAB.A machine that uproots trees and destroys everything in its path – it’s so bad that it frightens me just to hear that huge beast. Some people aren’t very friendly, which isn’t pleasant. I hope this path will be maintained; I’m so sad to see this state of the environment.

There’s a mistake at the start. You shouldn’t take Rue du 11 Novembre, but Rue du Presbytère.
It should be noted that in wet weather, a section of the path is impassable.
We would have liked to see yellow markings all along the route; these are very few and far between.
And as there are three different directions, all signposted in yellow, more signposts would be welcome.
We came across lots of people who, like us, didn’t know which way to go.
It would also be nice to have signs explaining the maquis at Sainte-Féréole. The signs we came across contained only general information that can be found in books.

Hello Pascale, and thank you for your comments.

I’ve re-read the description at the ‘problematic’ point and I must say it wasn’t entirely clear… I’ve moved WP4 and placed WP5 at the point where you leave the stream. I’ve reworded the description to make it clear that, after crossing the stream, you need to turn left, as you pointed out.

Hello, this route is very good, but there is a mistake at waypoint 5:
(5) Cross the Saulières stream, then follow the path – which is only partially marked on the map – as it turns to the right.
It seems as though you’re supposed to turn right after the stream, when in fact you should turn left
Especially as, after the stream, there are two signposts for Sainte-Féréole: one on the right for 4 km and one on the left for 3 km.
Perhaps this warrants a correction
Thank you for creating this walk so close to where I live
