Boucle de l'Estuaire à VTT

In the centre of Valeyrac, discover this beautiful church on the square, then take the rue du 19 mars 1962 and walk past the old communal well.

At the next crossroads, turn left along the cemetery to the stop sign. Go straight on until you reach the Cantelaude crossroads, watch out for cars. At the crossroads, take the path as far as the estuary and then follow the dyke to the right.

Like the Goulée loop, you can observe the different bird and plant species along the estuary and, above all, admire the magnificent view of the opposite shore. On a clear day, you'll be able to see the cliffs and carrelets of Charente.

On your right is the Valeyrac matte, farmland cultivated since the 17th century, where peace and quiet reign. At the signpost, turn right and take the wooded path to the road.

Turn left and then first right onto the Route des Sarrasins. You will come to a wine-growing landscape. Continue straight on until you come to the crossroads with Rue des Acacias, on your left is the former wine estate of Ladignac, hence the name of the place. Turn right into rue des Acacias, and before the crossroads on your left, you will see the magnificent Château Ricaudet Troussas.

At the crossroads, go straight ahead on route du Mourey, then left on route des pins. Go straight ahead and turn right onto route de Bégadan to reach Valeyrac town centre.
