Comments

October 4, 2024,Au sud de Saint Amand un matin gris.

This morning, in the fog and with 6°, a tour south of St Amand on relatively dry paths after the rains of the last few days. Be careful, on the way back, the path along the Cher after the Orval mini-golf is prohibited to pedestrians and cyclists. Risk of landslide from the bank. Splash!
