A wonderfully eccentric idea: weld a couple of bicycles to a steel platform running on a disused railway line, put three other seats on the platforms and Bob's your uncle! You have a great day of exercise and entertainment for all of the family!
This nearby activity runs for 5 miles from Roumazieres through the local forest. It is open all year but you do have to phone and book from October to May. There is a small cafe kiosk at the halfway point.
Just 20 minutes to the start at Confolens.
