Pretty castle built in 1623, used today for business meals, seminars etc...
You can cross it by passing under the porch to access the sector of the ponds and/or the wood of the Parc de la Gournerie.

Short portion, very pretty, with a small rocky passage and a very rolling majority, ideal for connecting the Parc de La Gournerie and the continuation of the valley of the Chézine.
