Yellow markings
(S/E) Leave the Champ de Mars car park via Rue Marcelle Tynaire.
(1) The steep path on the left could not be used (17/08/2021) due to roadworks.
The proposed route therefore follows the road, which is longer but has a steady, manageable slope. At the fork in the road, take the left-hand fork to reach the cemetery.
(2) Walk past the cemetery, following the road.
"Viewpoints over Altillac and the Dordogne Valley".
At the crossroads, first turn left then right.
(3) Take the path on the right that descends between the meadows.
(4) Cross the small bridge over the Tartarel, then take the road (D12) on the left along the stream.
(5) Opposite a traditional house, take the path that descends to the right along the Tartarel, then follow the road (D41) to the left for a few metres. After a building that resembles a station, take the path on the right that runs alongside the Dordogne. Pass in front of the double chapel (a chapel on two levels) and then join the road. Follow it to the road on the right opposite a house with loggias. Take this road and continue straight on along Rue Saint-Roch. Pass through the Porte Sainte-Catherine and take the street of the same name. Visit Saint-Pierre Abbey and continue along the street that runs alongside the building on your left.
Go down to the Dordogne and take the footbridge on the right.
(6) After enjoying the beautiful views of Beaulieu, turn around.
Continue along the banks of the Dordogne and pass in front of the Chapelle des Pénitents.
(7) Take the alleyway on the left between the houses and join the road. Cross it and take the path opposite that leads off to the left into the woods, which joins the Champ de Mars (S/E).
