Description of the walk

Park in the car park at Lasséran church.

(S/E) Go down the road and turn left. Pass the old wash house and its insect hotel. At the crossroads, take the road on the left for about 100 m.

(1) Leave the road and take the path on the right. Walk along the grove and then cross a small wood. When you reach a road, cross it and take the path opposite, which turns into a track. You will arrive at the Lodge La Gurlanne.

(2) Continue until you reach another road. Turn left, then at the next junction turn left again to reach a dirt track at the exit of the hamlet of Maouret.
Enjoy the view on your left.

(3) Descend via the path furthest to the left. Before crossing the stream, you will find a lovely picnic spot. Continue to the road.

(4) Turn left onto this road. Pass through the hamlets of Le Comptant and Le Poucet.

(5) Before the bridge over the Gurlanne, turn right. Cross the small tributary of the Gurlanne and reach a crossroads with a path.

(6) Leave the road and take the path on the left, which turns into a trail after another small bridge. Continue along this trail to a place called La Burguère, then take a carriage road to the road.

(7) Turn left and then, at the cross, turn right. Leave the road on the left leading to Grand Mené and keep to the path opposite, which leads straight to the lake shore.

(8) Keep left on the path that runs alongside the lake. Continue along the path that runs alongside the River Auloue until you reach a road at a place called Petit Carreté.

(9) Follow the road to the left. Stay on it until you reach the crossroads at a place called Le Mouréou, where there is another trail junction in the left-hand bend.

(10) Leave the road and take the path on the right. Continue almost straight ahead until you are about ten metres from the edge of the forest, then take the path on your left downhill and follow the stream until you come to a rural path, where you turn left. Ford the stream. Continue along this path until you reach a junction with a tarmac road.

(11) Cross it and take the path opposite, which descends. Continue along this path until you reach the car park at Lasséran church (S/E).

This hike is pleasant, well marked and features many points of interest (wooden sculptures, information signs, birdwatching information, etc.), which make the route even more enjoyable.
However, there are several sections of tarmac road, but they are very quiet.

Hello, everyone
We went hiking in perfect weather. There was a light breeze, which was very refreshing.
A lovely hike, although it was a shame about the tarmac sections, but overall it was good

Hello, everyone.
Hike completed in beautiful, warm, dry weather. Lovely hike in the beautiful Gers countryside, varied landscapes (hills, valleys, crops, forests and even a low-lying lake). Overall, a pleasant route, despite quite a few tarmac sections. Thank you for sharing.

Very varied route (fields, undergrowth, lakeside, river). Information boards every kilometre.
Benches/tables mainly at the start of the route, and also a bench in the middle of Passemoulié woods (10). A banner at the entrance to the woods warns that the owner is irascible and that motor vehicles are prohibited. Another banner at the exit warns mountain bikers that "elderly people are at liberty". Didn't see any elderly people, but did see a bad-tempered dog (perhaps the real owner?), who ultimately lets you pass. From the woods, you can see representations of birds (photos or drawings on the wood, opposite the bench in particular) and nests.

A very pleasant walk. We opted for the 10 km route because it was raining. However, we will definitely do the longer loop because this walk is very enjoyable, with beautiful trails alternating between sections of road and long paths, which is great when you have dogs with you.
Very well marked except at the tip of the lake where it is clear that you should not take the bridge because there is a yellow cross but no indication to go towards the fenced field. But with the GPX track, no worries, you can find your way ☺️
Well done to everyone who took the trouble to map out this route and add all these messages, which make the walk even more enjoyable 👍

A beautiful hike with a wide variety of landscapes.
Be careful, the end of the hike in the woods is a bit off-trail, but we had a lot of fun.

Lasséran must be a very dynamic village, judging by its community spirit and its loop trail.
13 km of bliss, parish specific to Brittany, well-marked.

the terrain is ideal for walks and very pleasant for hiking and mountain biking.

Very beautiful hike.
Well marked except for two or three places where you have to look for the markers and it is essential to have the description.
Be careful, as the ground can be very slippery in places after rain.
My only regret is that almost half of the route is on tarmac roads.

This hiking trail is particularly interesting, with its theme featuring messages every kilometre, the rolling landscapes of the Gers region, not to mention its sporting aspect (perhaps for amateurs), but it is worthwhile if you make the effort.

A route through rolling countryside bathed in the golden hues of ripening grain, enhanced today by the ballet of the harvesters.
A very pleasant path along the lake continues along the Auloue stream, where you will see broom, orchids, dragonflies and butterflies.
There are two shaded areas along the route where you can rest or have a picnic.
Thank you to the author for this educational itinerary. Ly

A pleasant hike with varied landscapes. What's more, in this cruel world, it's good to reread the maxims posted in Lasseran and along the route. The only downside was that in some places I found the fields to be very colourful, but I found them less beautiful when I was told that this was due to chemical weedkillers. Another point to note is that the signposting is particularly well done, which is often the case on routes in the Gers.
