Rullac-Saint-Cirq walks

La Selve, a former Templar commandery, is situated on the D902, 10 minutes from Réquista and 40 minutes from Rodez. La Selve is primarily an agricultural community, with sheep farming being particularly well established there.

An easy walk, combining wooded paths and tarmac roads. A pleasant, shaded route despite the undulating terrain.

A chance to explore the area around Trémolières, a hamlet in the commune of Rullac-Saint-Cirq, situated on a plateau between the Cône and Giffou valleys.

Nestled in the Céor valley, a true paradise for fishermen, the village of Salmiech enjoyed a successful revival during the Salt Road era.

This walk is situated at the confluence of three valleys and between two picturesque villages, Saint-Just and Castelpers.The site of Castelpers is an ancient fortified settlement, mentioned in the Book of Miracles of Sainte-Foy de Conques. It has become a very popular destination. Of this former seigneury and barony belonging to the Castelpers family (13th to 17th centuries), all that remains on the rock is the pre-Romanesque chapel known as Notre-Dame du Roc.This small sanctuary overlooks the Giffou Gorges from a height of 150 metres and houses a statue of the Virgin Mary crushing three black snakes.The Chapel of Saint-Jean de Castelpers (2 km away), nestled amidst the woods, was originally a small abbey which became a flourishing priory until the end of the Crusades.

Discover the village of Lédas-et-Penthiès by following the “Randonnée Paysanne”, which will take you from the village to the Cérou valley, home to the ruins of the Moulin de Penthiès.

A walk on the border between Ségala and Lévézou, passing through the beautiful Lagast forest and up to the summit of Lagast.

A walk that follows, for the most part, the Roupeyrac beech forest and offers beautiful views over the Lévézou.

From Réquista, situated to the south of the Ségala plateau, to Lincou, on the banks of the Tarn. Numerous viewpoints overlooking the Tarn valley and the Réquista countryside, a land of livestock farming, particularly the Lacaune sheep, whose milk is used to make Roquefort.

Partly forest walk down into the Nauze and Viaur valley where the Versailles site is located: a little paradise by the stream, ideal for a picnic, a spot of fishing or simply a break.

A short, idyllic circular route through the cultivated, wooded and lush countryside of Lévézou.

This easy midday walk is best undertaken in hot or very hot weather. Indeed, it takes place entirely in the woodland and along the Viaur, and almost entirely on signposted paths. However, it is not a circular route; nevertheless, the view over the Viaur is very pleasant and, above all, it is very comfortable there, sheltered from the heat. This path is little used. It is situated on the Chemin des Planques.

The Las Planques chapel is a remarkable example of southern Romanesque art.It is nestled on a rocky promontory in the middle of the woods and majestically overlooks the Viaur Gorges.This long circular route is less difficult to access than the one from Pampelonne (published on Visorando).Although classified as moderately difficult, you will need to be reasonably fit to cover the distance and negotiate the rollercoaster terrain of the Viaur. PLEASE NOTE: Following the flooding of the Viaur, as of 20 February 2026, the trail is inaccessible between the Viaduct and the Tanus Bridge, and most likely for the section leading to the Las Planques footbridge.

This circular route, which constantly goes up and down, follows mostly narrow paths through the woodland alongside a stream; it may therefore prove difficult, or even impassable, in wet weather. It is well signposted in yellow in the first section, but once you’ve left Sauveterre, there are no signposts, so you’ll need to follow the route description carefully.

A shortened circular route to explore the Chapel of Las Planques, nestled in the woods. Although short, this route requires some effort to tackle the numerous ascents and descents that follow one another in succession.

A beautiful, small but challenging unpaved circuit for a half-day of physical exertion. Although classified as moderately difficult, you will need to be reasonably fit to tackle the rollercoaster ride of the Viaur. Woods, water, views and old stones are here for your viewing pleasure.

Overhanging path offering magnificent views of the Tarn valley, Brousse-le-Château and the Lévézou. Yellow markings along the entire route.

Two small villages nestled on the slopes of the Tarn, amidst magnificent and peaceful countryside. The River Tarn winds its way through the valley, and the paths lined with low dry-stone walls that once linked the two villages are steeped in history.

A walk to enjoy on your own or with the family. Lots of tree-lined paths, some of which are narrow. Starting from the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Ceignac, the route follows small streams before becoming circular and returning to the start, passing in front of the oratory.

Combradet, a hamlet in the commune of Réquista, is built on a ridge overlooking the La Croux Dam on the River Tarn.This circular walk offers numerous views of the Tarn valley.  

This is the land of white water and a thousand springs that feed numerous streams and small lakes further downstream. A short detour at the town’s main crossroads allows you to see three spires: since 1997, they have stood at the centre of the crossroads where Baraqueville was founded, clearly marking the place the town intends to retain at the heart of the Ségala, that of the main hub for events and interaction. The three spikes symbolise the Ségala’s past and give way between them to the three roads of the crossroads, which, when viewed from above, form the spokes of a turning wheel.

Perched on a rocky promontory, at the confluence of the Tarn and Alrance rivers, the magnificent small village of Brousse-le-Château is noted for its exceptional location.

Gathered around its church, Gramond is a village rich in history. The valley is wild along the Lézert with a view of Boussac that will amaze you.
