Advice

Shooting takes place regularly close to the military camp at La Courtine. Don't worry, it only happens inside the military compound. This circuit has a longer variant (Au filde la Déjoune).

Access

As you leave Felletin heading towards Ussel, follow the D23 towards Poussanges. From Ussel, follow the D982 towards Felletin. 15 km beyond La Courtine, turn right, go through Clairavaux, then head towards Poussanges.

Ambiance

This hike goes up the Dejoune River to the sources of the many streams that make it up, bordering the La Courtine military camp. Walking on the high part of the valley, elements of traditional architecture, the history of the hamlets, and viewpoints follow one after another. On the way back, the church of St-Pierre/ St-Paul, dating from the 14th century, and the lime tree known as the "Sully" are inviting places to stop for a break.
