A beautiful view of the Chassagnas peninsula, Lake Vassivière and the wild island of Vauveix which is worth a stop on your route.

A beautiful view of the Chassagnas peninsula, Lake Vassivière and the wild island of Vauveix.

A variant of the original 2.5km route to start in the car park on the Condamines road near Cluzeau in Magnac-Bourg. The loop will take you through a wooded path at the start and you will radically change the scenery. A desert landscape, arid, made of serpentine rocks and dry vegetation welcomes us. A thematic path will guide you by following the tiles and panels relating the fauna and flora of this vegetation worthy of a steppe. A little unknown corner, the remains of an old tile factory from the last century. This craft was flourishing in the area, thanks to the serpentine which provided the clay. Note that each manufacturer stamped his mon on the brick mould. A little further, a detour to the big rock and its book with beautiful panoramas. at the end of the loop, the mound with an overview and the pond. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lande_de_la_Flotte_et_du_Cluzeau

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

It has very beautiful paths that are a little wet these days. Too bad that some trails are no longer accessible because the vegetation has invaded them.

Rare to see two fountains close to each other. The most recent is very well restored. The detour is necessary.

In the town of Bersac-sur-Rivalier, in Belzanne. The first, larger with its two granite blocks, seems original, the fountain with its seats, a flat stone roof and the large basin. Its construction or its restoration are recent. The second is about ten meters away, embedded in the stone wall. It is older, smaller and may be feeding the first.

The source does not look like much, but the tree has chosen its place well, while preserving the building, it has water for its roots.
