The Sentier des Dolmens begins in Les Trois-Moutiers and is 12.5 km long. Along its route, it passes several dolmens and a hill where large stone slabs were gathered by people of the Neolithic period. The trail also has a picnic area.
When planning a stay in Les Trois-Moutiers, renting a holiday apartment may be a key consideration.
Culture
The village's ecclesiastical history spans several historical periods. After the French Revolution, the Romanesque Saint-Hilaire church was the only surviving one of the three churches in the village of Les Trois-Moutiers. It was destroyed in 1888 and replaced by the present-day church of Les Trois-Moutiers.
The Château de la Mothe-Chandeniers has a history marked by lavish splendour, neglect, an audacious reconstruction, a devastating fire and remarkable survival. The Moulin du Gué Sainte-Marie is one of the last tower windmills in the Vienne department. The dolmens of Les Trois-Moutiers and the menhir « la pierre de Courçu » are classified as historic monuments.
Nature
The Etang de pêche des Trois-Moutiers is located at the exit of the village towards Loudun and has picnic tables and play equipment for children.
