Route details
Description
Short, easy loop to do with family, friends or as a couple, starting from the car park in front of the church of Laramière. It allows you to observe the priory and discover it from several angles. Stroller hiking is possible on this circuit. The circuit is passable, from May to October inclusive, with a Hippocampe all-terrain wheelchair (loaned by the PNR des Causses du Quercy).
From November to April, you can also see an "ephemeral lake" or Rausel lake which serves as a relay for migratory birds. On the circuit there are 2 wash houses including the very well preserved Sindrouse wash house (not accessible in winter because the land is flooded and if it has rained too much it will be flooded).
Loop marked in yellow PR by the association “Friends of the History and Natural Environment of Laramière”.
