To show you just one of the many walking sections of the Tourist Offices check this link to our local office at the Castelnau site and click on "telechargez la randofiche" to download a route. We will give you the card and a translation if you would like.

Self catering also makes makes perfect sense. Our gites are well equipped with all the things you need. You can choose to eat out, or stay in depending on your mood and budget.

Pick up a car at the airport and you can control your holiday to suit your tastes. A weeks car hire is about as much as a return taxi fare from Toulouse airport.

We will gladly help you plan an agenda but being your own boss you can change it whenever you like and it saves you money.

You could drive to Albi and combine sightseeing with a routed walk around the city. Spend Sunday morning at St Antonin market then take a walk along the gorge of the Averyon . If you are a "birder" you can stop when you see something interesting.
You don’t need to pack up every morning! Make your own picnics or have lunch in one of the many bar / restaurants.

Locally, there are two Grandes Randonées (GRs), several Grandes Randonées de Pays (GRPs) and numerous circular trails. All the routes are carefully maintained by the local communes and are clearly marked both on the ground and with written notes. They are also shown on maps of the local area, which you are welcome to borrow from us. You won't come to dead ends or sections where the path disappears, this leaves you free to enjoy the gorgeous views without the worry of getting lost along the way!

Having tried and tested many walks around Le Roc, we can recommend a variety of walking routes to suit your level of fitness.

I have mentioned on other pages of this website that the roads and villages are quiet. On foot things are very quiet and often you will have the route to yourselves.
