Ambiance

You are in Veyrières, a typical rural village on the Plateau Bortois where the granite has survived the ages to bear witness to past daily life. As you go along the sunken paths, you will cross the lands of the lords of Mauriange and discover the Romanesque church, several fountains that are essential to the life of the village, and Limousin-style farms. The route is family-friendly and offers the possibility of doing only the first small circuit of 4.5 km.
