Very difficult
Departure from Laval-de-Cère (Lot)
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?

Departure from Vic-sur-Cère (Cantal)
A short walk along a steep path that climbs sharply to the Rocher de Maisonne with its cross. This spot offers a superb view of the town of Vic-sur-Cère and the Cère valley, and the detour to the Trou de la Conche waterfall provides a refreshing haven.

Departure from Saint-Étienne-Cantalès (Cantal)
An interesting ride that’s well worth discovering, very different from the usual Cantal landscape. The terrain is flat, but that doesn’t stop there being a few lovely climbs and descents. On foot, the journey might seem a bit long, but on a mountain bike you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the variety of vegetation and scenery. Most of the ride is in the shade of the trees.

Departure from Saint-Étienne-Cantalès (Cantal)
An easy walk allowing you to enjoy the contrasting landscapes of the Cantal region without heading up to high altitudes. Superb views, old farmhouses, magnificent trees, a visit to the medieval village of Laroquebrou and the Saint-Étienne-Cantalès dam; opportunity to swim.
The suggested route generally follows the green ‘La Roquaise’ signposts, apart from a few minor variations.

A lovely, short round-trip walk through the Gorges de la Cère with no major difficulties. The path is a bit steep on the way down into the gorges (and back up again), so make sure you wear suitable footwear as the ground can be slippery after rain and there are plenty of roots and rocks. The walk is shaded and takes you through some very pretty gorges, which are less developed but just as beautiful as the better-known Jordanne Gorges in the neighbouring valley.
