Première étape de votre balade, l’étang des Landes s’étend nonchalamment le long d’une majestueuse allée de hêtres vénérables. Privé.
Ce petit étang perdu au milieu des bois porte le doux nom de « Mon Dilu ». Signifiant en occitan « Mon lundi », cette expression fait référence au jour de repos de Pierre Leonetout. Pâtissier à Limoges et natif des Ribières, il venait le lundi pêcher à son étang pour se détendre. C’est aujourd’hui encore un endroit parfait pour se poser un instant et profiter de la nature, sur le banc ou à l’abri de la cabane du pêcheur... et quel que soit le jour de la semaine !
Cet étang, le dernier de votre balade, est rattaché au château du Grand Bosviger, qui se situe à 300 m plus loin sur le sentier à votre gauche. Privé.

Are you looking for a family walk? Come and spend an hour in the woods of Saint Paul! Listen to the wind playing between the branches of the beech, oak and fir trees. Walk alongside calm ponds and enjoy the gentle murmur of the streams. And try to catch a glimpse of the black woodpeckers that have taken up residence in this peaceful environment.
From Limoges, take the D979 towards Feytiat. Then take the D12 towards Saint Paul. From the village of Saint Paul take the D115 to the car park in the woods.
