Descartes – Châtellerault
In Saint-Rémy-sur-Creuse, the road is picturesque, lined with chalk cliffs dotted with cave dwellings – shelters that were popular in medieval times and later among hemp weavers from the 17th to the 19th centuries.
The wooded route follows quiet roads towards Oyré and then enters Châtellerault via a lovely greenway.

Itinerary Tab :
In Oyré, head towards Ingrandes for 2 km, then turn left onto Rue de la Vollinière. Follow the minor roads until you reach the D161, where you turn left; once you reach the D910, take Allée d’Argenson, which runs alongside it until the first set of traffic lights. Cross the main road, Rue Louis Blériot; at the end, turn left for 1 km, then right onto the cycle path until you reach the railway bridge, which you should take to cross the Vienne and join Eurovelo 3 on the other bank.
At the first roundabout before Châtellerault, cross the road just before it, walk along the pavement for 20 metres, then follow the path opposite that runs alongside a wall until you reach the cycle path that follows the River Vienne.
