Roll out of Louzac-Saint-André and follow the route past the river L'Antenne, then on to the Château de François-Ier. The road keeps to the paved surface the whole way as it winds by the Le Solençon and La Soloire rivers, with the Château de Garde-Épée and Château de Saint-Brice along the path. Later you pass the Château de Merpins before meeting the Charente, and the loop brings you back to where you started.
