A path now goes around the walls from the outside. To take it, you have to retrace your steps to the entrance of the castle and turn right. This path was laid out around 1960, at a time when the walls were hardly visible, and the bulldozer sometimes tore them in. It was then called "chemin de ronde" and this name has been retained.
It allows you to observe sections of restored walls, particularly to the north, facing the village of Gavray, and to the south, at the back of the keep. It offers beautiful views of the Siena, the village of Gavray, the village of La Planche and the Bérence valley.
