This magnificent trail will allow you to discover part of the Vézère Gorges in a preserved and wild natural setting. Panoramic view of the Brive basin.
The hillsides of the Vézère river at the start of Voutezac
A lovely route that takes you from the Saillant Chapel to the Chartroulle Chapel, discovering one of the rare vineyards in Corrèze, on the slopes of the Vézère in the commune of Allassac. A few steep slopes and paths that can be muddy in the rainy season, but a beautiful panorama.
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.
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.
On the heights of Voutezac
A pleasant walk on the heights of Voutezac, with magnificent views over the Brive valley and Voutezac.

A short walk on the outskirts of Brive-la-Gaillarde in a pretty woodland setting, half of which is off the beaten track and half of which is on the road.

A beautiful hike on quiet paths and roads. The hike is very well marked in yellow from the church in Perpezac-le-Noir.
Sapinier Route
Wooded circular from the rugby stadium to the banks of the Roanne.
Rebourg-Chanteix Waterfalls
A short walk near Chanteix where you can admire a pretty waterfall and its stream, the Maumont Blanc. An ideal spot for a picnic at the end of the walk. The hike is easy, with only 400 metres of road.
Apple tree in the Vézère Gorges
The Vézère Gorges can only be explored on foot. Follow me, you won't be disappointed...

Crozes fountain
A very pleasant walk through the forest, offering exceptional views of the Objat valley at the end of the route.Best done at the weekend to avoid any disturbance from quarry activities.
User comment on 24 August 2025.(!) After the ruins of Patel, the footbridge (4) that crosses the river has collapsed and it is not possible to ford the river. A detour is signposted on site. This detour takes you to Rouffignac. Alternatively, you can follow "le chemin du Maquis", which is a little technical at at the moment.
Comment from a user on 29 December 2025.The second footbridge (under the ruins of Patel) has been repaired and the path can be followed as indicated.
