Peaceful all along the Bérence river, the difficulties follow on from one another when it comes to reaching the village of La Baleine and the Sienne valley. The circuit then becomes technical and particularly difficult north-east of Gavray. The slopes and descents follow one another, considerably limiting the recovery time. As you will have understood, you need to be experienced to take this route.
