The Argenton-sur-Creuse walking route is one of 18 station-to-station hikes in a Centre-Val de Loire series, with durations from 1 to 6 days. This specific loop begins in Argenton-sur-Creuse, spans 38 km over 2 days, and utilizes the train for access, aligning with the guide’s low-carbon approach to regional exploration.
The route incorporates sections of established GR trails and new segments from the Topoguide “Randonnées en Centre-Val de Loire, de gare en gare.” It guides walkers through the Creuse valley, past Argenton’s historic riverside areas with waterside houses and galleries, into Le Menoux to view Jorge Carrasco’s church frescoes, and concludes in Gargilesse-Dampierre, recognized as one of France’s most beautiful villages.
