Pradines (Lot) walks
Cahors, a city that is well worth a visit.
Cahors... I knew it by name, I often passed by not far from it, but I never stopped there. What a mistake! Cahors is a pretty little medieval town and a city on a human scale where you can do everything on foot. With its famous and sumptuous Pont Valentré bridge and its famous Saint-Étienne cathedral, this town has an incredible ancient and medieval heritage. Old Cahors is also a very attractive place with its secret gardens, half-timbered houses, market halls and market.
I visited and discovered Cahors on my second day of rest after 21 days of walking on my way to Santiago de Compostela.
