La Vallée de la Sélune

The circuit goes through a region with a tormented relief to go towards the valley of the Sélune from Le Teilleul. This circuit takes the old road from Rennes to Domfront, a route used by pilgrims in the Middle Ages to reach the Mont Saint-Michel. A little further on is the ascent of the Montécot mound. This coppice, essentially made up of chestnut tree saplings, was of economic use in the past. Thus, the peasants came to get wood for the strapping of their barrels. The circuit then follows for about 6 km, the old railway line linking Mortain, Barenton and Domfront to then take small roads and sunken paths.
