Starting from the Château de Rochechouart, you are instantly immersed in history and natural beauty. The Place du Château serves as your first waypoint, with its medieval charm that echoes the town's rich heritage. As you stroll away from the castle, the path becomes increasingly scenic, leading you into peaceful wooded areas 🌿.

Next, the Plan d’eau de Boischenu presents itself as a beautiful, tranquil body of water, perfect for a relaxing pause. You may encounter some hidden gems along the way, including an old van repurposed as a shelter, which adds a quirky and unexpected element to the walk 🚐. As the route loops back toward the Château, you can take in the views of the surrounding countryside, perhaps even catching sight of some wildlife 🦋.

Highlights of the Walk 👟

The charm of this walk lies in its natural and historical blend. The Château de Rochechouart is undoubtedly a highlight, but the route also offers the chance to connect with nature in a way that feels both enriching and peaceful. The forest paths and countryside views 📸 make this a great walk for photography enthusiasts or anyone wanting to escape into nature.

One key tip for this walk is to observe the nature closely. Whether it's the sound of birds or the subtle rustling of leaves, there's always something to discover if you're paying attention. Comfortable shoes are recommended for the varying terrain, and a light snack will keep you energized throughout the 13 km journey.
