At this central location in the forest—where six streets converge to form an open space—the brightly lit small sacred monument rises above a slab and a small stone base. The simply crafted wooden cross (without a body) bearing the name "La Croix Madame" is painted white, forming a radiant centerpiece in the middle of the forest.

To the north of L'Orée-d'Écouves, this place takes up the name of the town perfectly. Located on the edge of the Écouves forest, on a pretty tree-lined road, it offers superb landscapes over the surrounding countryside.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads were erected as visible signs and attract the eyes of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I wish that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God. " (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig in: "Crosses of the way ... Small sacred monuments as a sign of popular piety")

La Roche Mabile is a small village of barely 150 inhabitants, but the landscapes are worth seeing. Stone houses, small paths and hilly landscapes make La Roche Mabile a magnificent passage along the Véloscénie.

From Alençon to Carrouges, I passed through this village and as for Carrouges, it must be earned, these are magnificent places

A well-known crossroads in the Ecouves forest with a large white cross in its middle. Many trail or hiking trails nearby.

Small village crossed by the Véloscénie. Pretty landscapes of hilly countryside all around.

It is true that if you dare to defy the forbidden, the paths are nice
