Prahecq, a small rural village a few kilometers southeast of Niort, can be discovered by taking the "Le Ruban Vert" greenway, a converted former railway line. The stop around the Château de la Voûte offers a pleasant break amidst agricultural landscapes, before continuing on to Melle or Niort. This area is home to the Saint-Maixent church and wine-growing remains.

The Ruban Vert greenway follows the old Niort–Ruffec railway line, offering an accessible loop between Melle and Celles-sur-Belle, over approximately 9km of stabilized sand. The path winds through countryside, stone walls, shaded bridges and wooded passages, with a picnic area near the Chaillots pond. Accessible to cyclists, hikers and horse riders.

The green ribbon is rolling well and the abbey of Celles sur Belle is worth the detour

Small town of character with its three Romanesque churches and the silver mine of the Frankish kings.

Very pretty site on the banks of the Boutonne.

Javarzay Castle, the most imposing of its time in Deux-Sèvres, was originally made up of 12 towers, two of which remain today.

A small town of character stretching along the Belle River. The famous 12th-century abbey is a cultural hotspot hosting exhibitions and festivals. The town has also been awarded the "Ville en poésie" (Poetry City) label, and you'll certainly have the opportunity to read a few poems during your stroll!

Very nice view of the St-Hilaire church in Melle. top
