[FR] La voie verte entre Flers (plus précisément à la Selle la Forge, à quelques km) est une ancienne ligne de chemin de fer. Elle a été recouverte de sable et mise à disposition des randonneurs, cyclistes et cavaliers (interdite aux engins motorisés)en 2004. Le revetement a été refait en 2006-2007. Elle est très roulante. Sa largeur d'environ 4m permet à tous les utilisateurs de se croiser sans soucis. Des barrières sont installées à chaque carrefour avec une route (elles permettent néanmoins un passage aisé en vélo).

Depuis 2016, elle fait parti de la VéloFrancette. La vélo Francette est un itinéraire qui relie Ouistreham à la Rochelle.
En arrivant à Domfront vous pourrez rejoindre la Véloscénie qui démarre à Paris et rejoint le Mont-St-Michel.
Bonne balade!

[EN] The greenway between Flers (more precisely at Selle la Forge, a few miles away) is an old railway line. It was covered with sand and made available to hikers, cyclists and riders (prohibited to motorized vehicles) in 2004. The coating was redone in 2006-2007. It is very rolling.
