Between city and nature, Destination Limoges offers a perfect setting for those wishing to have a good stay, but it is also an area conducive to cycle tourism. Indeed, it is on the lands of Saint-Léonard-de-Noblat that the famous Raymond Poulidor spent most of his life. So, if you want to discover Limousin, what better way than to do it by bike?
From Uzurat to Aurence Park
This first mountain bike route allows a good warm-up with a flat terrain without elevation. In the middle of nature, it's an opportunity to take a breath of fresh air while pedaling towards the Aurence park and his animals. In short, this comfortable route extends over 20 kilometers and will delight relaxation lover who do not necessarily want to embark on a sporting event right away.
