cycling in creuseOn or off-road, the Creuse has it; roads where you're more likely to meet a cow than a car; hundreds of kilometres of marked trails through forests and open countryside, downhill runs... Take part or watch one of the many mountain bike events organised throughout the year.

themed and family breaksChurches, châteaux, ruins, standing stones; the Creuse's history is traced through its monuments and architecture. Aubusson tapestry, Monet's impressionism, sculpted Masgot; culture and art are in total harmony, part of the Creuse's riches and do not forget the fabulous traditional classic cuisine.
