Nice little single but very narrow, better to take it in the direction of Villegouge I think rather than from Villegouge to be in the direction of descent for the Pierriers I took it from Villegouge and I didn't manage to climb while remaining on the bike . nice panorama once at the top

https://www.abbatialedeguitres.fr The church of Guîtres is an abbey church; it is therefore the church of an abbey of monks (Benedictine). This abbey, of which only a few traces remain, is said to have been built by Grimoard and Raymond de Fronsac, sons of Hermengarde de Rochechouard, towards the end of the 11th century (between 1060 and 1080). The abbey of Guîtres was therefore dependent on that of Fronsac. The Romanesque style, which dominates the eastern part of the church, is proof that it was shortly after the year 1000 that it began to rise to the picturesque height where we can admire it today. In the Isle Valley, on a hillside where there were three fountains famous even at the time of the Romans (from which the name Guîtres is said to have originated), the Benedictines from Fleury-sur-Loire and Cluny laid the first stone of their abbey on the site of a chapel burned by the Normans. Their work lasted until the 15th century.

Moulin de Charlot on the Saye. Family brewery in the heart of the forest along the river. It is open from May to September but the site is accessible all year round, including picnic tables.
