You’ll certainly come across some beautiful scenery, but:
- most of the route is on tarmac roads
- the route is not signposted (the only marker is, in fact, incorrect) except, of course, for the GR section
- there are few real points of interest

This route offers lovely views, cow pastures, fields of wheat, oats and lavender, as well as some beautiful buildings, but there’s a lot of tarmac. We cut through the woods to visit Montlauzun, which added some extra elevation gain and about 2 km to the route.

It’s a shame, but the path now runs through private land that’s been fenced off...

THE DIRECTIONS AT THE START ARE A BIT CONFUSING, BUT ONCE YOU'RE ON THE ROAD, IT'S BETTER. THE GPS WORKS WELL, ALTHOUGH THE DISPLAY IS A BIT SMALL TO READ

Interest of the route: Average, fine for walking mainly.
A pleasant walk, though mostly on tarmac. Strangely, the village of Montlauzun, with its viewpoint, is neglected. It should be included in the route, which passes by the foot of the hill (former presbytery). Just before that, note the huge hazelnut plantation on the right.

Hello
A lovely day for this lovely walk...
The route description is very helpful to follow, as the yellow markings don’t always correspond to the route!
A tough but short climb on the GR

Lauzerte - Moissac
↔18.24 mi ↗+1,463 ft ↘-1,834 ft ◔9h 40 ▲Difficult
⚑Departure from Lauzerte (Tarn-et-Garonne)
Thirty-third stage of the Way of St James. The GR®65 is a bit of a rollercoaster ride on this rather long stage. After the first climb, don’t forget to look back and admire the village of Lauzerte in the distance. Pigeon lofts and chapels, as well as vineyards and orchards, follow one after another. You gradually leave the Quercy Blanc behind, heading for the banks of the Tarn and the town of Moissac, which is well worth a visit.

⚑Departure from Lauzerte (Tarn-et-Garonne)
Route revised on 17/08/2023 to avoid paths that may be blocked by vegetation. This route runs along both sides of a ridge, partly following the Way of St James. On one side, you’ll enjoy a stunning view of the town of Lauzerte. On the other side, you’ll visit the magnificent Chapel of Saint-Serrnin du Bosc and its old cemetery, situated at the bottom of a wild valley. As you cross from one side to the other, you’ll see a remarkable dovecote opposite the beautiful Chartron residence (a former priory).

⚑Departure from Touffailles (Tarn-et-Garonne)
A lovely walk through fields and small woods, along paths lined with Causse oaks and box trees. Numerous springs bubble up at the edge of the plateau, forming fountains and wash houses. The limestone outcrops and the colour of the stones used in the houses are characteristic of Quercy Blanc and the Pays de Serres.

⚑Departure from Lascabanes (Lot)
Stage 32 of the Camino de Santiago. A stage where the GR®65 is a bit of a rollercoaster ride. You will pass through the town of Montcuq, one of France’s most famous towns, made popular in the 1970s thanks to a famous sketch by Daniel Prévost in *Le Petit Rapporteur*, before arriving at Lauzerte, a hilltop village overlooking the valleys and hills of Quercy Blanc and listed among the Most Beautiful Villages of France.

Visorando Member
Le Castrum de Flaugnac
↔4.45 mi ↗+666 ft ↘-689 ft ◔2h 40 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Flaugnac (Lot)
The village of Flaugnac is built on a rocky promontory called a "popie", overlooking the Lupte valley. Its architectural heritage, white stone houses with traditional architecture and hilly surroundings with diverse crops give it an undeniable charm. This route allows you to admire the landscapes of the Quercy Blanc from viewpoints over the valleys while walking through a varied environment (hillsides, hamlets, limestone plateaus).

Walking A stone's throw from Pern

Visorando Member
↔7.41 mi ↗+761 ft ↘-758 ft ◔4h 05 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Pern (Lot)
An easy hike starting from Pern, allowing you to discover the rolling landscapes of Quercy Blanc via varied trails with very little tarmac. There is little traffic on the few roads used. The route is half in shade and half in sun, with a risk of slippery trails in wet weather.

⚑Departure from Moissac (Tarn-et-Garonne)
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.

⚑Departure from Lafrançaise (Tarn-et-Garonne)
This is a hilly route, most of which is shaded by trees. At the highest point, you can enjoy a remarkable view of the Tarn plain and pass by the ruins of a medieval castle. The path at this point is thought to be a very old one that has been used since time immemorial. At the lowest point, you will find some coolness as you pass by a large field of poplar trees and a reservoir used for watering crops.
