Description of the walk

(S/E) Starting from Tourrenquets church, turn your back on it and head left. In the village, turn left at the "salle de récréation" (recreation hall), follow the dirt track that descends after the farm and arrives at the recently restored Château de Labatut.

(1) Turn right behind the château and at the end of this shaded road, turn right.

(2) When you reach the next crossroads, known as La Croix (take care!), follow the road to the right for 50 metres, then turn left onto the small road that leads to Tourrens.

(3) After the first group of houses on the right-hand side of the road, take the dirt track on the right that leads to the small cemetery in Tourrens. Turn right to cross the hamlet and, at the crossroads after the church, turn left.

(4) Continue straight ahead. The road you are following quickly becomes a dirt track. At the first intersection, turn right onto Chemin de Couderla, which climbs up to the village of Tourrenquets. You will rejoin the tarmac road and continue to the next intersection. Turn left and then right to return to the church (S/E).

A very pleasant walk that we did as a family (with two children aged 9 and 6), in sunny weather, which meant we could have a picnic! Lovely views.

Hike completed on a rainy day with lots of mud stuck to our shoes...
Enjoyable and varied nonetheless.

A little muddy at first, but after a nice walk, the dog can run.
Best done in drier weather.

An interesting short route with beautiful views, but few architectural discoveries – the churches are always closed! Nearby is the site of Latour, in the commune of Miramont-Latour, a beautiful large residence, unfortunately closed on Sundays.
From Fleurance, this is a very good route, however, as the Fleurantin tourist office does not offer anything in this area.

A very beautiful hike that I did again two months ago for the Fleurantins walking club. They found this route very enjoyable.
