The compass will be your guide!

During this walk, plot and follow your route according to the given azimuths. This walk will take you for 2 hours on a 7 kilometer route.

To do this route you will need to help yourself with a compass, a map and azimuths. You will have to plot your own course by steering with the compass, like a great explorer’s adventure. And yes! You will not have any maps to help you!”

To complete this course two solutions are available to you: either prepare and plot your course before you leave, or go on an adventure and advise once in front of the paths, free to choose!”

      My feedback!

      Personally, I have created, tested and approved it!

      I loved walking these paths through small groves in the middle of autumn, the little whispers of nature so pleasant to the ear, the sounds of footsteps in these beds of multicolored leaves, not to mention the songs of birds, a real treat for the eyes as well as for the ears. This walk is an opportunity to completely disconnect from the city and appreciate the natural wealth of our little corner of paradise, which is the countryside.

      For those who wish to make this discovery walk in autumn or winter, I give you a little advice … Equip yourself with good shoes, me, I finished these 7 kms with my feet in the water so come equipped!
