ラヴィニャックのおすすめツーリングルート

The Gabie Bridge spans the Vienne River between Verneuil-sur-Vienne and Saint-Priest-sous-Aixe. Built in the 19th century from granite, it replaced an ancient Gallo-Roman bridge located a few hundred meters downstream. The site, classified as a natural area of ecological interest, offers beautiful access to the river for a peaceful break.

The ruins of the Jeanne d'Albret Tower, classified as a historic monument in 2000, stand on a rocky outcrop above the confluence of the Aixette and Vienne rivers. Unfortunately, the ruins are not accessible.

No cars, some good compacted gravel, nice areas for a picnic (and maybe even to pitch a tent and bivouac ? Not tested). What more can you wish for ?

Nice little rest area. Good for a rest

From here it would only be 500m to the source,... but in the heat of July 2022 we preferred to drive further.

Nice body of water where you can take a well-deserved break. Fast food is offered from 12:00 p.m. to 7:45 p.m.

There is a campsite and an interesting porcelain factory to visit near this rest area, including a factory outlet.

Once the sources of the Dronne have been reached, the reward for the long climb to the Sommet des Cars follows - a long descent.
