Jussac walks

Short urban walk along the Jordanne, then into the Cantal mountains, a stone's throw from the centre of Aurillac. Beautiful views of Aurillac and the Chaîne des Puys. There are herds of livestock and electric fences. Dogs are not allowed.

A magnificent tour on the plateau where the village of Girgols is located. A short stretch of tarmac road at the beginning, then paths and fields. From the hamlet of La Bastide, you are in a wild, solitary and magnificent world.

A short but pretty circular route in a secluded valley, with landscapes typical of the Jordanne Valley – green and rolling. Unmarked, but no difficulty in finding your way.

An interesting low-altitude hike above and in the Jordanne valley. Enjoy beautiful green landscapes typical of the Cantal region. Pass through pretty little hamlets with old buildings. Peaceful and natural.

In the heart of the Cantal, this circular route reveals a landscape where nature and heritage blend at every step. From Les Havres Verts, the route descends towards Le Rieu before following the Doire along its shaded banks. The path climbs through the forest and, from an isolated barn, offers a beautiful view of the valley. You then pass through quiet hamlets (La Blatte, Labastide, Soulage) that bear witness to a preserved rural way of life. At La Blatte, an old castle invites you to take a break. Its owner, who is there in spring and summer, is happy to act as a guardian of the site’s history. The route reaches its highest point at Girgols, a charming village where the church and the old wash house are well worth a stop. The return route takes you across the plateau and through the forest, with a stop at the Blatte waterfall (more lively in spring than in summer). You then head for the banks of the Doire to make a leisurely return to the start. An accessible, varied and authentic walk, ideal for discovering the Cantal off the beaten track.

A lovely walk through isolated valleys, typical of the Cantalian mid-mountains. Beautiful trees, beautiful landscapes, peace and greenery. A marked walk with no particular difficulty, if you enjoy paths and hills.

A lovely, easy hike through bucolic countryside, along and above the water, almost entirely shaded by tall trees. Beautiful views. Swimming possible. Near Saint-Illide, Arnac and Pleaux.

Depuis le lieu-dit Roupeyroux, cette randonnée vous invite à découvrir un parcours authentique qui mêle nature et histoire. Le sentier, en partie non balisé, suit des traces anciennes utilisées autrefois lors des transhumances. Au fil de votre marche, vous longerez le Ruisseau de Saint-Rémy, dont les murmures apportent une sérénité bienvenue. Le chemin, parsemé de nombreux cailloux, requiert de bonnes chaussures pour une progression confortable. Heureusement, l’ombre généreuse des arbres vous accompagnera tout au long du parcours, vous offrant des pauses rafraîchissantes à chaque étape.

If you love hiking but don’t have four hours to spare, this walk is the perfect compromise! Head up into the hills and explore Saint-Martin-Valmeroux by following the local footpaths. You can enjoy beautiful views of the valley and discover the region’s landscapes at your own pace. A lovely opportunity to take a peaceful stroll, with family or on your own, and savour the natural, tranquil atmosphere of the area. It’s a lovely route that combines peace and nature, with a few technical sections only in the first part, but ideal for hiking enthusiasts

The second stage of my three-day tour of Puy Mary, with an overnight stay in a bivouac. Passing through villages where you can stock up on supplies if necessary

Circular walk starting from Saint-Martin-Cantalès on the square in front of its beautiful 15th-century church. An easy, shaded route exploring the various hamlets between the two rivers in this vast commune in western Cantal. Yellow“PR®” signposting. This route is brought to you by the “Balades entre Maronne et Bertrande” association.

Starting from the small village of Omps in the Cantal chestnut groves, this walk between plateaus and valleys offers beautiful views of the Monts du Cantal, with visits to hamlets with remarkable buildings.

Stage 4 of our Tour du Cantal / GR®400 Another beautiful stage alternating between summer pastures, forests, ridges, peaks (puy) and passes. Long, with quite a lot of elevation gain and loss. Bring plenty of water!

Another lovely stage that takes you from one valley to another via the magnificent Puy Violent.

This easy walk will take you to the summit of Puy Violent, where you can admire a superb 360° view of the Aurillac plain and Puy Mary. Above the Croix des Vachers, an orientation table will tell you the name of each peak.
