ClearPR® signposting.
The route includes muddy sections in winter (this is the Lauragais region) and a few steep climbs.
Short walk around Lake Lampy

The proximity of the lake for cooling off, the deciduous forest for a shaded walk and the very passable paths, despite a few fords along the route, ensure a very pleasant time even with children.
Lampy, Lampiot, around the lake

Three quarters of the hike is sheltered from the sun and wind by the beech forest (mainly). Wear good shoes as the trail is often muddy with some stream crossings that are more or less maintained. Foresters have cleared the trail, which creates some large puddles, but these can always be avoided by walking along the edges of the forest.

A route starting from Corronsac in the 'long' version, with magnificent landscapes on ridge paths and some beautiful trails in the Lauragais.
La Chapelle la Capelette in Dourgne
