Mountain bike park with a pumptrack, restrooms, and a water fountain. Four cross-country loops (green, blue, red, black) and one downhill loop. Well-maintained with a magnificent view.

Refreshing portion where you play with the Dathée River. We pass above, we lose it, we find it at the exit of a path paved with granite. Stunning !

Charming little passage of a tributary of the Glanon with a small stone bridge for those who don't want to get their feet wet.

There you will find a small site where the Vire flows through a series of rocky waterfalls, creating a natural spectacle of sound and movement. The waterfalls are part of a Sensitive Natural Area, a protected area that is home to rare species of fish and crayfish. Enjoy the beauty and tranquility of this hidden gem.

Founded in the 11th century, the Benedictine abbey of Notre-Dame de Lonlay had a great influence in the region. Eight priories were attached to it, from Le Mans to Alençon via Domfront. At the architectural level, it presents a particularly interesting mixture of styles with its Romanesque transept and its Gothic heart.
