The Malause hillsides
Enjoy lovely views of the hillsides around Malause and discover the Church of Sainte-Rose (12th and 13th centuries).
Gasques washhouse route
A strip of chalky rock runs down from the Quercy highlands to the outskirts of Valence d’Agen. On this short route, you’ll wander over hill and dale. You’ll pass by a few old wash houses. The first, below the village, still has its stone benches for washing clothes. The others, halfway along the route, on either side of the road, are overgrown with vegetation or water lilies.

Route from Chapelle d'Ax to Boudou
Boudou, a small, welcoming village, has always been on the Way of St James. With your back to the river, you will walk through the hills, navigating both the ridges and the valley floors. In the heart of this fruit-growing region, orchards and vineyards form vast geometric patterns. You will also discover small irrigation lakes, dovecotes and, above all, the Romanesque chapel of Saint-Pierre d'Ax (12th and 15th centuries).
