Roll out of Landivy and the route unfolds through the Parc naturel régional Normandie-Maine, a nature reserve that sets the tone. The road then shadows the Sélune, the Colmont and the Ourde rivers in turn, all on paved surface. A climb of 660 m builds toward the Château de Goué, a castle that marks the high point of the loop before you spin back to Landivy.
