チェザル・ブノワ（Chezal-Benoîtのおすすめライド

The Villette pond is a pretty body of water of about 50 hectares. You can discover it by taking the path that borders it on the north side and take a short break to admire many species of birds such as ducks, herons, kingfishers and perhaps even swans, especially in winter. Unfortunately, there are no other paths to go all the way around it. So I head back towards La Châtre via the very pleasant little Duriaux road.
