Route linking Espeyrac on the GR®65 with the medieval town of Entraygues on the GR®465 via the Chemin de la Reine Margot. You’ll enjoy magnificent views over the Lot and Truyère valleys, as well as the Monts du Cantal and the Aubrac Plateau. Please note: unless you’re continuing on to Entraygues, this route will require you to leave one car here and another in Espeyrac for the return journey.

Easy
Departure from Sénergues (Aveyron)
From the pretty village of Senergues to another very beautiful village, Conques. The route alternates between roads and paths through the woods. The arrival in Conques is via a long descent that is quite steep in places. The views are magnificent. The path is always marked in white and red by the GR®65.
As this hike does not return to the starting point, you will need to leave a vehicle in Conques.

Moderate
Departure from Estaing (Aveyron)
This is a stage of the Way of St James starting from the pretty village of Estaing. I recommend visiting this magnificent village and its castle. You can also enjoy a drink by the Lot river. A plaque in memory of President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing can be found at the entrance to the village. This stage is moderately difficult with a lot of road and some elevation gain, so bring something to drink and protection from the sun.
