GR®100 The Hundred Years' War Paths

From Montluçon (Allier) to Poitiers (Vienne)

The GR100 follows the footsteps of the 14th-century Franco-English conflict, highlighting more than thirty defensive sites and medieval citadels. From the fortress of the Dukes of Bourbon to the battlefields of Poitou, hikers traverse a France full of character, marked by the raids of the Black Prince. In terms of landscape, the route offers remarkable diversity through five departments. After leaving the green hedgerows of Allier and Cher, the trail dives into the steep valleys of the Creuse, revealing wild panoramas that once inspired Impressionist painters. The transition to Indre takes place through the Brenne Regional Natural Park, nicknamed the "land of a thousand ponds," a biodiversity sanctuary where aquatic wildlife reigns supreme. Finally, the rolling landscapes of Poitou lead gently toward Poitiers, the city of a hundred bell towers.
