Located on a loop (I think it's the A5 or A6 loop) very close to Flée, it allows you to join the Nouaillé road at the exit of Saint Benoît, or to join the Clos des Gorges stables on its right, and on its left the Jean le Bon trails towards Miosson. Quite technical, but well maintained by the village of Flée, you can reach the Bois de Saint-Pierre via the village and the small road opposite which leads to Smarves.

Poitiers, capital of Vienne, nestled on a promontory, is the university city par excellence, it was the first university city in France and Navarre. The old center remains attractive with its houses made of "mud" and wood, Poitiers was called the city of a thousand bell towers. You must visit the Saint-Paul cathedral, Notre-Dame-la-Grande, and wander along the banks of the rivers that are the Clain, the Boivre. Do not forget to eat at the Ilôt Tison, renovated with its many guinguettes and refreshment bars. Stroll along the Promenade des cours, right next door. Stroll through Blossac park.

Poitiers benefits from the City and Country of Art and History label and in the hyper-centre, the "plateau", a short walk allows you to discover the typical half-timbered and half-timbered houses, the Palace of the Counts of Poitou and the majestic Notre-Dame-la-Grande. It is the starting point for many very nice itineraries!
