Argentat walks

This beautiful circular trail first takes you up to the heights overlooking Argentat. Enjoy beautiful views and discover the pretty hamlet of Aumont. In the second part, along the banks of the Dordogne, the trail takes you through the quayside district of Argentat and continues to a nature reserve. At the end of the trail, you cross the Dordogne via the Sablier dam.

Walk along the Xaintrie Noire and Gabariers trails in the shady undergrowth between the Roche and Clauzel streams. The trail is marked in yellow throughout and numbered (6).

A pleasant route in the hills above the Dordogne valley, with some lovely views, starting from Monceaux, an interesting village with its traditional houses.

A beautiful hike on a sunny slope of the Dordogne valley, where the fast-flowing waters of the Glane river run, dominated by the village of Servières-le-Château, renowned for its architectural heritage.

The hike first takes you up the Franche Valeine stream, where you can admire the beautiful, large waterfalls dotted along its course. After a connecting section, you descend to reach the Ruisseau des Rochettes gorges and waterfalls, then rejoin the Franche Valeine and follow it upstream to the car park where the hike began. Most of the route passes through wilderness areas untouched by human activity.

A peaceful hike through rolling countryside criss-crossed by brooks and streams, through woods and pastures.

A loop, mainly through woods, starting from the charming and picturesque sanctuary of Notre-Dame de Belpeuch, which means "the beautiful mountain". Located in the heart of the Xaintrie, it contains a magnificent statue of the Virgin Mary, dating from the 15th century. There are a few steep slopes, but the walk is pleasant. Good walking shoes are necessary.

From the Dordogne valley, a path leads up to the heights of Altillac, south of the Xaintrie. The shared influence of Quercy (on the houses) and Cantal (on the barns) can be felt in the village.

A pleasant but very long hike in the heart of nature, far from civilisation. 1,000 m of elevation gain. The Gorges de la Cère are very wild and steep-sided. They are only accessible on foot or by train. The hike is almost entirely in the shade and, as a result, the trees often hide the view. Best attempted in spring or autumn?

This is a short walk starting from the magnificent calvary of Bassignac-le-Haut, offering one of the most beautiful views of the Dordogne. It is an easy walk, with part of the route on a quiet road.

Walk above the Gorges de la Dordogne, through former chestnut plantations, a restored market garden, along an old Roman road, tracks and forest paths.

Discover the paths and small hamlets overlooking Lake Marcillac-La-Croisille, between the Doustre and the Labissière pine forest.

Enjoy a delightful walk around the lake and Coiroux Golf Course.

A winding route through the woods, between greenery and running water...

This lovely walk through woods and scenic spots allows you to discover a fairly authentic landscape and countryside.

Hike around a magnificent castle and ponds in the Sédières National Forest.

This hike will take you through a pretty village, which you will leave behind for a circular route offering a variety of landscapes, from the plains of the Dordogne valley to the hills of the Lot and the pretty hamlet of Plagne. A long, gentle descent will enchant you with views of the cliffs of the "river of hope" and the Gallic oppidum of Uxellodunum de Vayrac. You will then walk alongside walnut groves before returning to the narrow streets of the village centre, the fountain/wash house, its lively centre with shops and the old wine press.

Discover the natural beauty of the Gramat plateau, around the charming medieval village of Carennac. If you love nature and old buildings, this hike is for you.
