Fraissines walks

Fraissines is a small village overlooking the Tarn valley. Balcony paths wind their way up the steep slopes covered with tree heath. This ancient path once linked the villages of Trébas and Combradet. Viewpoints over the Tarn and Aveyron valleys, a spring, a waterfall and abundant, varied vegetation enhance this pretty route. Yellow markings.

A walk to discover the local heritage above Trébas. A route that takes you through rural landscapes and lush woodlands.

Hike in the hills above the Malagousse stream valley, with a detour to the village of Saint-André, then a climb to the top of a small hill for a view of the Tarn valley.

A slightly longer variation of the "Sentier des Sources" hike is available in the commune of Trébas. It passes by an old mineral water spring and climbs to the heights for a view of the Tarn valley. The route starts in Villeneuve, allowing you to cross the bridge over the river.

A very pleasant stroll, there and back along the banks of the River Tarn, connecting two charming villages: Lincou and Brousse-le-Château. The latter is listed among the "Most Beautiful Villages of France".

Beautiful views over the Tarn valley and charming villages: Lincou, Connac, Lavabre. The last three kilometres are a very pleasant stroll along the Tarn. Beautiful stone crosses all along the route. Yellow markings on certain sections of the path.

This route, set amid stone landscapes and valleys, allows you to discover the Occitan crosses that mark the entire route around Coupiac and its castle. A patchwork of hills and valleys along the route will delight the eye.

Overhanging path offering magnificent views of the Tarn valley, Brousse-le-Château and the Lévézou. Yellow markings along the entire route.

This is a trail with varied landscapes that takes walkers from the heights of Saint-André to the banks of the Tarn. You will follow theGR®36for half of the route.

Perched on a rocky promontory, at the confluence of the Tarn and Alrance rivers, the magnificent small village of Brousse-le-Château is noted for its exceptional location.

A beautiful hike in the Ambialet Piedmont. Ascents towards Les Puechs and descents through the undergrowth follow one another in a series of gentle undulations. As you descend towards La Condomine and Ambialet, two pretty little villages, you will appreciate the charms and tranquillity of the banks of the Tarn.

A route that runs along the heights of one of the most beautiful meanders of the Tarn, passing by the Puech du Point de Vue, before descending for a visit to the site of Ambialet.

A lovely loop that will take you through unspoilt nature, between valleys and hills. Woods and open landscapes punctuate the route until you return to a superb viewpoint over the remarkable isthmus of Ambialet, a splendid peninsula classified as a protected site since 1948. The priory dominates the bend in the Tarn and is the end point of the beautiful Way of the Cross that begins around the Saint-Gilles Chapel, nestled in the rock.

This circular offers a view of the remarkable isthmus of Ambialet, a peninsula that has been classified as a protected site since 1948. The priory overlooks the circular Tarn and is the end point of the beautiful Way of the Cross, which begins around the Saint-Gilles Chapel, set into the rock. Some fairly sustained effort will be required at the start, but then the route becomes varied, alternating between bucolic landscapes and woodland paths. Finally, a long stretch along the banks of the Tarn itself will provide a welcome opportunity to cool off.

This hike, mostly in tree-shade, takes you through coombs and valleys to the south of Saint-Sernin-sur-Rance. Beautiful paths, some of them forgotten or seldom used, add a pleasant touch of wilderness. A breath of fresh air in absolute calm, in an unspoilt natural setting, not forgetting the two menhir statues at Pousthomy, which add a touch of historical interest to this walk.

Perched on a plateau at over 800m, Montfranc and the spire of its mountain-style church look out towards the Tarn and the Aveyron. A short, unpretentious walk, with lovely paths and views of the Monts de Lacaune.

Starting from the small village of Pousthomy, this walk alternates between sections through woodland and along the ridge, where the view opens up to 360°. In terms of heritage, the Monastery of Notre-Dame d’Orient at the start of the route, three menhir statues along the way and a visit to Combret at its remarkable site will delight lovers of beautiful stonework and provide an excellent addition to this nature walk.

A circular route that will take you through small villages, charming hamlets, rivers, woods and peaceful landscapes. Majestic sites (such as the Oulas Gorges, Paulin Castle and the valley of the three rivers at Saint-Jean de Jeannes) can round off the day. This is the land of the sheep that provide the milk for Roquefort cheese.

Discover the village of Lédas-et-Penthiès by following the “Randonnée Paysanne”, which will take you from the village to the Cérou valley, home to the ruins of the Moulin de Penthiès. (October 2024: installation of around forty signposts (featuring a millwheel symbol) to guide you along the circular route – update to the route by removing a section of road)

Very interesting hike as much for the landscapes (Rance valley, Rougier de Camarès) as for the culture (village of Combret, Notre-Dame d'Orient, numerous crosses). Some portions on tarmac, but with the magnificence of the small paths and the beauty of the landscape, you'll quickly forget them.
