Limogne-en-Quercy walks
Around Limogne-en-Quercy
Set off on a route around Limogne-en-Quercy. You will pass the village wash house at the Place des Étoiles viewpoint. You will then take a path back to the village centre.
Between gariottes and fountains
This hike on the Limogne plateau allows you to discover the rich rural heritage of this region, including the beautiful traditional Quercy houses with their distinctive gabled roofs.
Most of the route is not officially marked, but it always follows well-marked rural stone paths.
Journey to the land of the Gauls and pastoralism in Beauregard
A hike on the Beauregard limestone plateaus, in the heart of a landscape sculpted by pastoralism and our Gallic ancestors.
Perte du Cros, its cave and the Saillagol mill
Discover the source of a stream (the intermittent Cros stream) and its cave. The walk crosses woods and fields and offers views of numerous small heritage sites (low walls, cazelles, wells, crosses, church). The path passes by the foot of the Saillagol mill, which has been restored and is in operation on certain dates.
From the Cornus rock to Trou Madame
This circular walk, proposed by the Association 'les pierres vivent' and the commune of Cénevières, winds its way from the valley to the causse, sometimes along small wild paths, sometimes along wider paths, and very few roads.
Along the way, you will discover fountains, caselles, dovecotes, chapels and wash houses, as well as the Trou Madame spring and the château, which is open to visitors
Four villages, two castles and a river
Four villages, each with its own unique character:
- Cénevières and its magnificent castle
- Calvignac, perched on the cliff
- Larnagol, nestled in a hollow in the cliff
- La Toulzanie, a troglodyte village
The River Lot flows between these four villages, with a path climbing up the cliff on the left bank and remaining on the plain on the right bank.
The cornices of the Causse plateau in Cénevières
This route passes through various high points offering beautiful views of different valleys and the Lot valley.
Old mine and viewpoint over the Lot from Crégols
This is an easy hike on sharp limestone pavement, offering a beautiful viewpoint with a passage near a chasm, which is not secured, so caution is required for all.
The Chemin du Bout du Monde in Larnagol
This beautiful hike will take you past the stunning Font Nègre spring to the Bout du Monde (End of the World) viewpoint, which offers magnificent views.
Note dated 25/02/2023: following the closure of the communal path that bypassed the Castanet farmhouse on the left, a new communal path has been created. It bypasses the farmhouse on the right and is now correctly signposted. The description has been amended accordingly.

From the Priory of Laramière to the dolmens
Walk in the Causses du Quercy Regional Nature Park. Enjoy the wild beauty of nature and magnificent scenery. See a typical Quercy village, a 13th-century priory, majestic dolmens and caselles (gariottes). Photography enthusiasts, get your cameras ready.
Gouffre de l'Oule circular loop
This circular walk starts from Saint-Clair de Margue, a hamlet belonging to Salvagnac-Carjac. On this walk, you will walk along roads without meeting anyone. You will take paths between low walls that mark the boundaries of plots of land. You will see magnificent landscapes on both sides. You will be in the shade most of the time, but also in the sun on other sections. You will discover the Gouffre de l'Oule.
The banks of the Lot in Saint-Cirq-Lapopie
This walk allows you to discover Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, the River Lot and its towpath, then the limestone plateau above the village. I also suggest a shorter alternative route.
Circular around Cajarc through the hills and along the banks of the Lot
A varied route with a slight climb at the start and a very flat return. The route runs along the edge of the village of Cajarc before climbing into the hills to the Lacaunhe cave. The return journey is along the banks of the Lot, offering coolness and an effortless finish.
