Advice

Be sure to wear sturdy shoes: take care on the descent.This circuit is quite physically challenging between points 3 and 4. An easier variant that avoids this section is the subject of a descriptive sheet.

Access

From Neuvic or Liginiac, follow the D20 then head towards Sérandon.

Ambiance

Between the sky and the Dordogne, in the heart of a protected environment, the path overlooks the Dordogne gorges, the typical village of Vernéjoux, the sloping forests, the agricultural plateau and the village of Sérandon. Pleasant in all seasons, with perhaps a preference for the winter, where the absence of leaves makes it easier to see the river and the snowy panoramas of the Auvergne mountains.
