Take a trip down memory lane. This former stone quarry, now a pond, offers a pleasant walk in the heart of the bocage. You'll pass along the old railway tracks, the voies vertes. You'll also pass along the old track used by the waggons that brought the stones to the Lithaire station on their way to Paris and its major works. Around the pond, you'll see the old castle, the old church and the remains of a Neolithic alley. Don't miss the 180° view of the surrounding area.
