Departure from Curvalle (Tarn)
A mainly woodland walk leading up to the heights of Villeneuve-sur-Tarn, from where the view stretches over the surrounding hills and the Tarn valley. Small valleys and refreshing streams are also part of this pleasant route, suitable for all seasons. Summer is particularly recommended as the woods offer welcome shelter, and the return journey along the Tarn may provide an opportunity for a swim to round off the day in style.

Departure from Combret (Aveyron)
Very interesting hike as much for the landscapes (Rance valley, Rougier de Camarès) as for the culture (village of Combret, Notre-Dame d'Orient, numerous crosses).
Some portions on tarmac, but with the magnificence of the small paths and the beauty of the landscape, you'll quickly forget them.

This hike, mostly in tree-shade, takes you through coombs and valleys to the south of Saint-Sernin-sur-Rance. Beautiful paths, some of them forgotten or seldom used, add a pleasant touch of wilderness. A breath of fresh air in absolute calm, in an unspoilt natural setting, not forgetting the two menhir statues at Pousthomy, which add a touch of historical interest to this walk.
