Château de la Barge (circuit no. 4)
Start: Centre nature des 4 vents (Aubusson d'Auvergne)
This waymarked loop takes you to the château de la Barge along paths and tracks with no technical difficulty (except possibly the first descent at the start from the nature centre). Be aware: the château de la Barge is private property that offers visits to its very pretty chapel and gardens only in the summer season, or on prior request for groups. On the way back, you climb a long path that goes through the Bois de la Plaine.
