Rocamadour walks

With a magnificent overview of the landscapes of the Causses du Quercy Regional Nature Park around Rocamadour, this hike takes you into a breathtaking site at the heart of a thousand-year-old pilgrimage dedicated to the Virgin Mary, a major Christian site since the Middle Ages and classified as a Grand Site d'Exception in the Midi-Pyrénées region.

Beautiful course, above and in the Alzou valley, visiting two mills: the Moulin du Saut (fortified mill of the 12th century) and the Moulin de Tournefeuille.

A lovely hike beginning at the viewing point of the Cascade d'Autoire and the Château des Anglais and which, at the halfway point, crosses the Marais de Bonnefont.

A nature trail to admire the remarkable Autoire cirque and its waterfall, not to mention the unique Château des Anglais nestled in the cliff.

Loop around Meyssac and Collonges-La-Rouge to discover the geological fault that has left a deep mark on the ground. Red sandstone to the north and white limestone to the south will take you to the Chaise du Diable (Devil's Chair) where you can rest before diving back into the valley.

From the Vitrac quite village, this route goes up the Dordogne valley to discover the famous La Roque-Gageac clifftop village.

This well-marked loop, taken from the region's guidebooks, will take you through the village of Vitrac, perched on a plateau and dominated by its church and castle, as well as the medieval village of Montfort and its castle.

A stroll around Domme, through the countryside dotted with hamlets, woods, and walnut trees. At the end of the walk, an itinerary to visit this beautiful village is suggested.

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.

With this walk, you will not only visit Beynac, the famous village clinging to its cliff, with its castle overlooking one of the Dordogne's meanders, but also Cazenac, a quiet little hamlet high up in the valley, with its small church featuring remarkable modern stained glass windows.

Enjoy discovering the village of Beynac (one of the most beautiful villages in France) and don't hesitate to visit its castle, a jewel of 12th-century military architecture that has been constantly remodelled since then. You will then be able to admire the surrounding countryside of hills, valleys, shady forests, green meadows and typical Périgord houses with their undeniable charm.

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.

A pretty 12 km trail, almost entirely in the woods, which is pleasant in summer. There aren't many viewpoints, but this circuit allows you to discover the pretty village of Grézels and, once you reach Le Tuc, you can see the Lot river below.

This circuit will introduce you to two of the prettiest villages in the Lot Valley and vineyards. These villages are also steeped in history and preserve visible reminders of their past.
