The three mills of Venarsal
A five-minute walk from Brive and Malemort along the streams that feed the Barrage de la Couze dam.
A shaded route through the woods, with the only drawback being a slightly steep hill on a tarmac road.
You will pass three old mills, which are no longer in use but reflect the life of yesteryear.
PLEASE NOTE: deforested area between points 3 and 4, impassable in wet weather.
The Étangs de Lachamp-Favars
Just 20 minutes from Malemort-sur-Corrèze, this shaded walk with very little tarmac allows you to discover the large Étang de Lachamp lake and the forests surrounding Favars. A pleasant walk in hot weather.
This hike takes 2½ hours.
The Bois de Chaleix in Bugeat
Actual time: 1 hour 45 minutes
A short hike from Bugeat, along the Vézère river through the woods, very pleasant in summer as it is well shaded. You will discover the meanders of the Vézère along a narrow path right by the river. Not very practicable in winter as it is very wet.
Chavanac from Millevaches
This hike, starting from the village of Millevaches, will take you to Chavanac, a restored village with a beautiful Romanesque church and stone houses.
Tarnac, mills and rocks
A very beautiful hike that takes you back to the source of the Vienne near the village of Servières and across the Chandouille on wooden bridges and granite stone bridges.
Bonnefond and the Chadebec Mill
Actual time: 2½ hours
This hike will take you to the heart of the Massif des Monédières and the Plateau des Millevaches, where numerous streams flow. The rural heritage is also rich in stones, crosses, menhirs and plank bridges. In winter, you can do this circuit on cross-country skis.
Circuit round the Theil at Clédat
A short walk around the magnificent restored village of Clédat, in the middle of the Larfeuil Forest. With its church, fountains and stone-built thatched cottages, Clédat will take you on a trip back through time.
The four mills of Venarsal
A beautiful hike around the Biou and Couze rivers, which flow into Lake Couze. Very shady, it passes four mills, some of which have been restored but are no longer in operation. The gradient is sometimes a little steep, but it's worth it.
Please note: there is a deforested area between points (5) and (6), which is impassable in wet weather.
Puymèges
A short walk on the outskirts of Brive-la-Gaillarde in a pretty woodland setting, half of which is off the beaten track and half of which is on the road.
Around Saint-Germain-les-Vergnes
A short, twenty-minute walk from Malemort-sur-Corrèze, which is pleasant as it is partly shaded and partly sunny. There are a few sections on roads, but there are lovely woodlands and meadows.
Around Laguenne
A short walk through the woods around Laguenne, 5 minutes from Tulle. It begins with a long climb, partly on road, but ends in the woods and along the River Saint-Bonnette. Best enjoyed in summer as it is entirely in the shade of the woodland.
Around the Étang de Lachamp
Just 20 minutes from Malemort-sur-Corrèze, this shaded walk allows you to discover the vast and wild Étang de Lachamp. A pleasant stroll on a hot day.
Rebourg-Chanteix Waterfalls
A short walk near Chanteix where you can admire a pretty waterfall and its stream, the Maumont Blanc. An ideal spot for a picnic at the end of the walk. The hike is easy, with only 400 metres of road.
Longerade bog
Discover the peat bog via beautiful forest tracks.
Longeyroux peat bog
You will walk through the Longeyroux peat bog, where you will discover the sources of the Vézère river, in which you can take a dip. You can also follow a discovery trail through the peat bog with educational information boards.
Mirambel Forest
This route takes you through one of the most beautiful deciduous forests on the Millevaches plateau.
The village of Saint-Rémy is also well worth a visit.
