Tips from the Community
It will be impossible for you to miss the Saint-Palais church with its seemingly endless bell tower, unless you don't look up from your handlebars. For the record, it is in the town of Saint-Palais, at a place called Les Combles, that the center of the great big circle that can be drawn in continental France is located. It is therefore the furthest place, precisely 291.3 kilometers, from any border.

Pretty installation in the forest which is sure to make you smile and watch the undergrowth in search of an elf hat.

Priory founded in the 12th century by King Philippe-Auguste, it was inhabited until the beginning of the 16th century by monks. Registered since 2013 on the list of Historic Monuments, its restoration was launched in 2016. It now regularly hosts schools and the association which takes care of its preservation would like to make it a real forest school where children could learn more about flora, fauna and history.

Easy path to practice in dry weather. You ride in the shade for miles. Low elevation where you can take the children without the danger of cars except, of course, at the crossroads of small country roads. Can be very muddy in winter.
