La Borie Waterfalls (Brezons Valley)

Car park alongside the D39 in the hamlet of La Borie (or Laborie).

Follow the blue signposts

(S/E) Walk up through the hamlet. The single street turns into a hillside path. The path enters a narrow gorge.

(1) Ignore the first footbridge and stay on the right bank (north) of the stream. Further on, three successive footbridges allow you to cross to the other side, eventually reaching the left bank.

(2) View of the waterfall from below. Turn back here if the weather is wet or if you suffer from vertigo.
Otherwise, head up the very long and very steep flight of steps. At the top, on the right, there is a viewing platform with a bird’s-eye view.
Continue along the path, which is narrow, steep and slippery but protected by rope handrails. You’ll reach the first footbridge, which you passed by on the way there.

(1) Return to the car park (S/E) via the same route you took on the way there.

A drystone shelter is situated just south of Brezons, on the D39 towards Saint-Martin-sous-Vigouroux and Pierrefort.

On the sign at the start: “You reach the waterfall after passing through the village of La Borie. Once you reach the waterfall, from the first viewing platform onwards, the path is difficult and one-way. The 30-metre staircase and the overhanging viewing platform are not accessible to those who are afraid of heights or to children under 12 years of age. The local council accepts no liability in the event of an accident.”
