Two Walking Routes, Different Destinations

The destinations clearly distinguish the two routes: one focuses on discovering small villages, while the other takes in fountains and places of interest. So when choosing between the routes, you can start by asking yourself which theme interests you along the way.

There is a car park by Laborde church for the Circuit des villages. The route starts in Laborde. If you’re planning to take this route, you can use the car park as a specific landmark when finding your way there.

Crafts as a Distinctive Feature

Visitors can discover a woodturner in Laborde. This offers a different focus from the walking routes: here, the emphasis is on crafts rather than choosing between villages and fountains.
