Although there are many large forests and woodland areas in this part of France, each has an individual feel for it and the locals tend to have their own favourites too. You can make your own mind up about which is most tranquil and unspoilt by walking through the very heart of the woodland, under the great canopy that makes some of the central areas dark, even in the heat of the summer at midday. This is an experience you will not forget in a hurry.
