From Saint-Pierre-des-Nids you roll out for a loop of 68.8 km, all of it paved. The route follows the Sarthon, a river, then leads into the Normandie-Maine nature reserve. Later you meet the Sarthe, another river, before passing the castle Manoir de l'Echenay. With 591 m of climbing, the road brings you back to where you started.
