Advice

This circuit includes a section shared with the itinerary "From Villages to Dams" marked in yellow and white. Follow the markings carefully; the two routes separate after the village of Rotabourg

Access

From Neuvic or Liginiac, follow the D20 towards Roche-le-Peyroux and Bort-les-Orgues. The church is on the left as you leave the village of Roche-Le-Peyroux.

Ambiance

As you leave the Romanesque church, there is a panoramic view of the Cantal mountains and the Sancy massif. The small country roads criss-cross the villages of Rotabourg and Les Chaumettes to lead to the château of Anglars, a sentinel erected by the Ventadour family in the 13th century (private property; cannot be visited).The atmosphere changes on the way back where small paths in the undergrowth overlook the Dordogne and lead to the viewpoints of Val Beneyte and the Grézolles (the confluence of Diège and the Dordogne).
