Vilhonneur Roman Ford Loop

Start from the car park at the town hall and village hall.

(S/E) With the village hall on your right, cross Route du Château and follow it to the left. Immediately turn right onto the path leading to the Roman ford (signposted).

(1) Cross the Tardoire River and continue straight ahead on the GR®4 (red and white markings). At the next intersection, turn right (let the GR® continue straight ahead). Take the first grassy path on the left.

(2) You will come out onto a small road; follow it to the right. Further on (elevation 99), take the path on the right.

(3) Take the footbridge over the Tardoire. At the T-junction, turn right. Then turn left onto the path. Cross a branch of the Tardoire and turn right immediately.

(4) After a left turn, join the D414 and follow it to the right. Continue straight ahead. Leave the town hall and church on your left and you will immediately return to the car park where you started (S/E).

Bring something to drink and good walking shoes.

Vilhonneur is a small, picturesque village with a few archaeological sites, including a ford on the Tardoire river and a castle.
