Circuit des Deux Puechs
A lovely loop that will take you through unspoilt nature, between valleys and hills.
Woods and open landscapes punctuate the route until you return to a superb viewpoint over the remarkable isthmus of Ambialet, a splendid peninsula classified as a protected site since 1948.
The priory dominates the bend in the Tarn and is the end point of the beautiful Way of the Cross that begins around the Saint-Gilles Chapel, nestled in the rock.
Route des Cabannes in Ambialet
This circular offers a view of the remarkable isthmus of Ambialet, a peninsula that has been classified as a protected site since 1948.
The priory overlooks the circular Tarn and is the end point of the beautiful Way of the Cross, which begins around the Saint-Gilles Chapel, set into the rock.
Some fairly sustained effort will be required at the start, but then the route becomes varied, alternating between bucolic landscapes and woodland paths. Finally, a long stretch along the banks of the Tarn itself will provide a welcome opportunity to cool off.

A circular route that will take you through small villages, charming hamlets, rivers, woods and peaceful landscapes. Majestic sites (such as the Oulas Gorges, Paulin Castle and the valley of the three rivers at Saint-Jean de Jeannes) can round off the day. This is the land of the sheep that provide the milk for Roquefort cheese.
The Deer Trail (long version)
This route offers a wide variety of landscapes: fields, meadows, rivers and forests. Numerous crossings of valleys through which tributaries of the Dadou flow make this hike quite physically demanding. The villages on the hilltops, ridges or valley floors bear witness to farming and livestock rearing that is still active amidst unspoilt nature.
This route combines the Chemin des Bergers in the north with the Sentier du Chevreuil in the south, already described on Visorando, returning via theGR® 36.
