69Walking in France: Videix in the Snow
Limousin, south west France is a wonderful place for ramblers and walkers and long distance and short walks begin from our Bed and Breakfast, Les Trois Chenes in the pretty hamlet of Videix ten minutes from the medieval town of Rochechouart. The roads are empty and the paths numerous. It is also a great place to stay if you are searching for property for sale in this area.
