Affordable mountain bike circuit for all levels, half on very pleasant forest paths, not many paved roads for those looking for a nature outing.

A former stronghold during the Hundred Years' War, the building is said to have served as a landmark for the English, nicknamed the Red Devils, which is said to have given it its name. The building is currently privately owned. https://www.chateau-fort-manoir-chateau.eu/chateaux-charente-chateau-a-puymoyen-chateau-du-diable.html https://www.francebleu.fr/emissions/histoires-et-patrimoine-dans-les-2-charentes/les-charentes-mysterieuses-le-chateau-du-diable-a-puymoyen-16-1426390

This beautiful valley is classified as a Site of European Interest due to its limestone cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation. The southern slopes are dry grassland which favors a warmer climate, while the northern slopes and valley floor are cooler and wetter. As a natural climbing site, it is known all over the world.

The Château de la Tranchade dominates the Anguienne valley on a rocky outcrop protecting the south-eastern access to Angoulême. A strategic stronghold to control Angoulême, La Tranchade has often been besieged.
