Saint-Sylvestre-sur-Lot walks

This is an easy walk offering beautiful landscapes typical of the region, where you can enjoy the view of the castle as you leave the Bois de Cadrès. The return to the village offers a landscape that is a delight for the eyes. To top it all off, the route is very well marked with arrows, yellow lines and the number 4 where necessary, as this is route 4 of the four available from the village.

A circular route from the church in Auradou to the plateau and wooded hills.

This circular route crosses the village then descends into the valley of the Estague stream before returning via the Pech de Bétou.

A short circular route alternating between roads and paths between Monbalen-mairie and Monbalen-village. This route passes through the Caoulet valley to the north and Saint-Antoine de Ficalba to the west before reaching the old village of Monbalen to the south.

This route allows you to discover one of the least known fortified castles in Lot-et-Garonne, its fortified village and its green valley: Gavaudun. It passes through the hamlet of Laurenque and its elegant 12th-century church. You will see the moving ruins of the Priory of Saint-Sardos and discover the legend associated with it. Off the route, you can visit the village of Saint-Avit, home to the Bernard Palissy Museum (potter, enameller, painter, glass craftsman, writer and scholar).

Route on the Fraisse plateau between the Goutère and Saint-Martin streams, starting from Madaillan town hall.

An easy hike starting from the village of Born. Beautiful landscapes as far as the eye can see and few roads. Plains and undergrowth. A ford at the start of the walk with the possibility of crossing without getting your feet wet.

From 26 June to 30 October 2025, cardboard artist Stéphane Munoz is exhibiting eight of his works in the centre of Agen. Here is a walk that allows you to discover this temporary exhibition and some historical curiosities of the city of prunes.

Majestic and imposing, Biron Castle perches on a hill, reigning supreme over the surrounding countryside. This landscape of hills, valleys, woods and fields where cows and horses graze is a haven of peace conducive to meditation.

This circular route, which leads to the Chapel of Saint-Martin and the streams of Saint-Martin and Néguevieille, with large wooded areas, offers numerous views of the valleys to the north and south.

The walk starts and ends in Puy-l'Évêque, but it passes through many wooded areas and also allows you to discover some natural sites and ancient buildings. A visit to the small church of Martignac, with its magnificent frescoes, is a highlight of the walk. The walk ends with a visit to the old town of Puy-l'Évêque, with views of the Lot. Ideal for a relaxing and gourmet break.

A largely shaded circular loop from the church in the village of Lusignan Grand overlooking the Garonne valley towards Lusignan Petit.

A very easy walk around Lake Tourliac, along the Brayssou, a small tributary of the Dropt. Plenty of birds (mallards, teals, wigeons, etc.). It largely follows the contour line along a footpath. As this is a reservoir, the walk is more pleasant in spring, when the lake is full.

A mixed walk (forest paths and small roads) around the bastide town of Monpazier. A complete immersion in the undergrowth and in a countryside that has hardly changed in over 50 years. A truly remote spot. Updated at the request of a local resident, the start of this hike has been moved to Saint-Cassien, near the village church.

A hike starting from the magnificent bastide town of Monpazier in the south of the Périgord Pourpre. Small paths and chestnut tree undergrowth. The walk is quite long, but the elevation gain is low. Enough to spend a very good afternoon (or morning).

Starting from the car park at the Trotte Lapin leisure centre, this circular route joins and crosses the village of Moirax, with its 11th-century church, then descends towards the Garonne valley before climbing back up for a very shady route dotted with streams.

Circular starting from Roquépine-Sainte-Radegonde via Saint-Léon d'Issigeac. Lots of countryside, a little forest. A ford to cross in winter. Birdsong. Perhaps a deer. Landscapes everywhere. A few small roads, with almost no cars. And then the ruins of the Moulin de Pincanelle after the Bois de Bayard.

À la découverte des villages de Frayssinet-le-Gélat, Pomarède et Goujounac.

A circular loop starting from Saint-Macaire Church in the commune of Lauzun. Very pretty scenery from the church. The walk takes you along paths through fields, through a hamlet, past pastures and an orchard, and through undergrowth where you will pass close to a pidgeon hunting hut.

Here is a walk to stretch your legs... but that's not all! There are also some beautiful rewards! At the highest point, there is a beautiful view of the plain and the Tarn, which stretches in graceful meanders between Lizac and Sainte-Livrade. There is also a bird's eye view of two buildings of respectable age. At the lowest point, on the way back, you can enjoy the coolness brought by the Tarn.
