After Baudre, you will join the towpath of the Vire valley. You will encounter lock keepers' houses which remind you that the Vire was navigable until the 20th century. You can take a break at the rest stop in Sainte-Suzanne-sur-Vire before heading to Condé-sur-Vire. At Le Mesnil-Raoult, you will leave the towpath to take paths through the picturesque Normandy bocage to Pont-Farcy, the terminus of the itinerary in the Manche department.
