Villefranche-d'Albigeois walks

The 'Jardin de la Berbie' garden, the Parc Rochegude, a route along the 'Ruisseau du Caussels' stream, a stroll along the Tarn river and, of course, the architectural highlights of Albi beautiful pink city, all enhance this urban tour.

This hike, mostly in tree-shade, takes you through coombs and valleys to the south of Saint-Sernin-sur-Rance. Beautiful paths, some of them forgotten or seldom used, add a pleasant touch of wilderness. A breath of fresh air in absolute calm, in an unspoilt natural setting, not forgetting the two menhir statues at Pousthomy, which add a touch of historical interest to this walk.

Perched on a rocky promontory, at the confluence of the Tarn and Alrance rivers, the magnificent small village of Brousse-le-Château is noted for its exceptional location.

Very interesting hike as much for the landscapes (Rance valley, Rougier de Camarès) as for the culture (village of Combret, Notre-Dame d'Orient, numerous crosses).Some portions on tarmac, but with the magnificence of the small paths and the beauty of the landscape, you'll quickly forget them.

In the shade of the pink sandstone collegiate church and the surrounding woods, a peaceful escape on bushy paths, mills and hamlets, forest trails wind their way along the river Rance.Yellow markings and a ford on the Rance.⚠️To be avoided in periods of heavy rain, otherwise one passes at ease by taking off one's shoes.

Thanks to the diversity of its landscapes, the Monts de Lacaune offer a remarkable palette of colours and a delight for hikers.

A hike between vineyards and hills which enables you to discover a gently undulating landscape where pretty small villages and lovely dovecotes, enhanced by their careful restoration, nestle. The Château-Musée du Cayla which is located on the walk could also provide amateur historians and literature buffs with a splendid cultural stopover, following in the footsteps of Maurice and Eugénie de Guérin, whose correspondence is still famous.

This trail is a marvel exploring the Saut de Vezoles and its lake with spectacular amenities.
