Canal des Moines
This easy hike will take you along the Canal des Moines in a bucolic, shaded setting, starting from one of the prettiest villages in Corrèze.
The Canal aux Moines and the ruins of the Monastery
A very pleasant hike close to a colossal structure built by the monks of Aubazines in the 12th century. It is a truly exceptional work. This route also allows you to discover the ruins of the Aubazines Women's Monastery.
The Moines Canal skilfully follows the curves of the hill and feeds a reservoir in the abbey enclosure. In the past, the waterfall was used to power the monastery's mill.
The Canal aux Moines, the Hermitage and the Cromlech of Puy de Pauliac
A very pleasant hike close to a colossal structure built by the monks of Aubazines in the 12th century. This circuit also allows you to discover a dolmen, a dry stone "village" built by a hermit, the Puy de Pauliac with its orientation table and its cromlech.
The Canal aux Moines skilfully follows the curves of the hill for about 1.5 km and feeds a reservoir in the abbey enclosure. In the past, the waterfall was used to power the monastery's watermill.
The Coiroux Gorges
Hike from the centre of Aubazine along the Canal des Moines, the Gorges du Coiroux, the wooded slopes of Roc Labrazie and the hamlet of Les Clèdes, before returning to the village by crossing the Coiroux torrent again, below the village, next to a waterfall.
The four mills of Venarsal
A beautiful hike around the Biou and Couze rivers, which flow into Lake Couze. Very shady, it passes four mills, some of which have been restored but are no longer in operation. The gradient is sometimes a little steep, but it's worth it.
Please note: there is a deforested area between points (5) and (6), which is impassable in wet weather.
The three mills of Venarsal
A five-minute walk from Brive and Malemort along the streams that feed the Barrage de la Couze dam.
A shaded route through the woods, with the only drawback being a slightly steep hill on a tarmac road.
You will pass three old mills, which are no longer in use but reflect the life of yesteryear.
PLEASE NOTE: deforested area between points 3 and 4, impassable in wet weather.
Around Aubazines
A winding route through the woods, between greenery and running water...
Circular around the Coiroux complex
Enjoy a delightful walk around the lake and Coiroux Golf Course.
The balconies of Corrèze starting from Cornil
This route consists of two circular loops, one 6 km long and the other 9 km long, which can be done independently. They are marked in yellow from the town hall in Cornil. The first passes along the banks of the Corrèze and the arboretum, while the second offers a long stretch through the forest. The whole route is fairly shaded, which can be pleasant in summer. A short detour allows you to admire the ruins of the castle and the church overlooking the village of Cornil.
Route of the plateau at Sainte-Féréole
The route is marked in yellow from Sainte-Féréole. It follows paths and small roads with little traffic.
Around Travassac
A lovely walk, partly through woodland and partly in sunny open country. Very little road walking.
Please note that the route does not pass through the Travassac slate quarry, which is a paid attraction.
