The banks of the Lot in Saint-Cirq-Lapopie
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.
Saint Cirq Lapopie From La Truffière campsite in Bouziès towpath

Two typical villages of the Causses du Quercy: Orniac and Cabrerets

This route will allow you to discover two typical villages of the Causses du Quercy: Cabrerets, a village flanked by the vertiginous cliffs of the Célé, and Orniac, a little gem of the Causses. All this while crossing some very beautiful landscapes: the peatland valley, the beautiful Combe Gelée and the descent to Cabrerets via Bout du Lieu, where you will overlook the Célé river while following theGR® 651, used by pilgrims on their way to Compostela.
Four villages, two castles and a river

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.
From the Cornus rock to Trou Madame

This circular walk, proposed by the Association 'les pierres vivent' and the commune of Cénevières, winds its way from the valley to the causse, sometimes along small wild paths, sometimes along wider paths, and very few roads.
Along the way, you will discover fountains, caselles, dovecotes, chapels and wash houses, as well as the Trou Madame spring and the château, which is open to visitors
Loop above the meanders of the Lot between Saint-Géry and Vers

This hike, along cliff-top paths, offers superb views of several meanders of the Lot, which you will cross. Several small locks are used by pleasure boats. The descent to Vers allows you to discover the village and its river of the same name with its port at the confluence with the Lot.
The Chemin du Bout du Monde in Larnagol

This beautiful hike will take you past the stunning Font Nègre spring to the Bout du Monde (End of the World) viewpoint, which offers magnificent views.
Note dated 25/02/2023: following the closure of the communal path that bypassed the Castanet farmhouse on the left, a new communal path has been created. It bypasses the farmhouse on the right and is now correctly signposted. The description has been amended accordingly.
The surroundings of Escamps: irises and truffle fields

A lovely ten-kilometre walk around the beautiful village of Escamps, starting along the beautiful iris path, then truffle fields, and finally the dry stream of the Combe de la Valse. Little elevation gain for mainly limestone plateau landscapes.
Circuit of wells and wash houses from Aujols

Wells, wash houses, gariottes (dry stone shepherd's huts), abbey ruins, remains of a fortification and a cluster of old rural houses are the main attractions of this rich and varied walk, which is very typical of the Lot region's heritage.

Prajoux loop in Cajarc
This circuit in the hills above the Lot Valley offers numerous viewpoints and a chance to discover the landscapes of the Causse.
On the cliffs of the Célé, starting from Espagnac-Sainte-Eulalie
Between Figeac and its confluence with the Lot, the Célé river crosses a limestone plateau. It winds its way between cliffs offering stunning views of the valley. This hike follows part of the river's course. The elevation gain on this walk will delight the more athletic, but it can also be easily split into two to suit everyone.

This loop allows you to discover the Causse in all its different aspects: cultivated areas, wooded areas, dry stone walls bordering the plots and the crossing of hamlets with typical Quercy houses.
Discover Saint-Symphorien

This lovely walk will take you along a variation ofthe GRP® trail that runs alongside the Ruisseau des Sietges (a tributary of the La Lère), the beautiful hamlets of Perrière (restored houses, stone walls, carved calvary and cazelle) and Saint-Symphorien (a former 15th-century priory, cemetery with dry stone enclosures, spring and restored stone basin). Part of the route is through woodland (magnificent boxwood paths) and the return journey is along quiet little roads on the limestone plateau.
La Côte Gelée and Pech d'Ablanc

A circuit around Caylus rich in heritage. An ancient Roman road, stone crosses, dolmens... and continuing 2-3 km at the end, a detour to the petrifying waterfall (not included in the route described below)
