Saint-Céré walks

This hike allows you to discover the Césarine Plateau, which overlooks the Bave Valley. Here you can admire Saint-Céré and its three castles: Les Tours de Saint-Laurent, Castelnau-Bretenoux and Montal. You will walk between the limestone Causse and Ségala, a land of chestnut trees.

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

A pleasant but very long hike in the heart of nature, far from civilisation. 1,000 m of elevation gain. The Gorges de la Cère are very wild and steep-sided. They are only accessible on foot or by train. The hike is almost entirely in the shade and, as a result, the trees often hide the view. Best attempted in spring or autumn?

Hike to discover the Bave, a tributary of the Dordogne. Along the way, see the remains of Gallo-Roman sarcophagi and enjoy a beautiful view of the Saint-Laurent towers in Saint-Céré.

Discover the Bave valley and the small Lot village of Ladirat.

A lovely walk in the hills above Terrou: chestnut and walnut trees, Salers and Limousin cattle. Beautiful views of the Tours Saint-Laurent.

This day hike allows you to discover the Gouffre de Padirac and the listed villages of Loubressac and Autoire. From the promontory, you can enjoy a splendid view of the valley.

This trail allows you to discover the charms of the Ségala landscape. It runs alongside streams, undergrowth and remote hamlets where time seems to have stood still.

This lovely walk through woods and scenic spots allows you to discover a fairly authentic landscape and countryside.

A loop, mainly through woods, starting from the charming and picturesque sanctuary of Notre-Dame de Belpeuch, which means "the beautiful mountain". Located in the heart of the Xaintrie, it contains a magnificent statue of the Virgin Mary, dating from the 15th century. There are a few steep slopes, but the walk is pleasant. Good walking shoes are necessary.

Discover the natural beauty of the Gramat plateau, around the charming medieval village of Carennac. If you love nature and old buildings, this hike is for you.

From the Dordogne valley, a path leads up to the heights of Altillac, south of the Xaintrie. The shared influence of Quercy (on the houses) and Cantal (on the barns) can be felt in the village.

This route takes you to the Salmière spring, the site of Fort de Cantal and an astonishing fortified caselle. The name of the village of Alvignac comes from the name of a man named Alvinius, who lived in Gallo-Roman times, to which the possessive suffix "acum" was added.

A beautiful, shaded walk offering stunning views over the Haut Ségala hills.

Flat route around Gramat Animal Park. The first part is on the Causse plateau in the meadows, with beautiful views of the villages and hills. From point (5), we go around the animal park where you can see a few animals.

This circuit allows you to discover Rocamadour as the pilgrims who came on foot did, the causse to the south of the citadel and the Alzou valley with its old mills.

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 walk, very pleasant in summer, well sheltered by the Alzou valley. The ruins of the mills will delight children and adults alike.

A very varied walk in the municipality of Floirac. Stream, "couasne" (backwater), mill, fountain, wayside cross and dry stone walls... It's a joy to discover all this heritage.

Follow the paths through the hills of Saint-Cirgues to discover the remains of the water mills along the Veyre (on the border between Lot and Cantal). Throughout the hike, you will find signs highlighting the vernacular architecture of the Ségali region. Although mainly through forest, the walk still offers beautiful panoramic views of Aveyron and Cantal.

Explore the hills of Saint-Cirgues on this hike. The trail passes through chestnut groves, crosses the Ruisseau Noir stream and offers views of the Haut-Ségala plateaus. As you walk, you will discover the diversity of the landscapes and the ecological richness of this region.

A hike along beautiful wooded paths or pastures to discover an unusual sundial.

A circular route starting from Meyssac towards Chauffour-sur-Vell along paths and small roads. Wash houses, fountains, springs and beautiful buildings adorn this fairly easy hike.

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.
