This circuit crosses contrasting landscapes: the valley of Clouère with the meadows of river and the mills, the plain with the cereal cultures, then a dry valley bushy, the lands of brandes where we find the gorse and the big heathers.

The right bank of the Clouère was lined with castles and mills, most of which did not survive the changes of the late 19th century.

This multi-hike circuit takes its name from the two rivers it runs alongside.

The Legend of the Fadets .. In the imagination of our ancestors, the fadets or leprechauns, a kind of goblin with a deformed body, lived in caves and underground passages of the Vienne valley. In spite of their mischievous and teasing spirit, they did the farmers a favor by guarding their sheep at night. They were found in "Biard", commune of Moussac, Queaux under the "Messelière" and in Persac under "la Roche du Bois Durand". This loop is part of a set of 4 loops called "Les Côteaux des Fadets" and located on the sector of Gouex, Moussac, Persac and Queaux.
