Departure from Montfa (Tarn) (Tarn)
This hike crosses agricultural plateaus offering beautiful views of the Castraises plains to the south and the Lautrecaises plains to the west. You will cross meadows, undergrowth and small hamlets via communal paths or small local roads.
At the end of the hike, the trail passes by the Château de Montfa, which was the home of the ancestors of the painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. His father lived there until the early 20th century. Today, an association is working to rebuild this remarkable place steeped in history. The trail is markedPR® Yellow throughout.

Departure from Lacrouzette (Tarn)
This region, between Mazamet and Castres, is extraordinary for its accumulation of granite boulders, left in all directions by nature. The walk is always sheltered from the sun and wind, and there is no tarmac.
I am making an exception to my rule of ignoring the markings left on rocks and trees. This walk is well signposted, but only pay attention to the FFR markings. White and red lines for theGR® and yellow lines elsewhere.
