Very nice walk in the forest with a path impassable for strollers or bicycles: lots of roots on the ground and rocks. A great tour in the forest!

The old road called "Chemin Chevaleret" connected Poitiers to the sea. The Roman bridge is a witness to this trade route at the time of Roman Gaul. It is an idyllic place to take a break or cool off with your feet in the water.

When you cross this bridge, you can thank the Roman architecture, engineering and builders, because this bridge still resists today the incessant flow of the Chambon.
