Leaving from the town centered around its mighty fortified church with rich furnishings, discover the former cloister of the Cordeliers, now the town's media library. On your way, you come across the birthplace of the famous Commander Cousteau, who scoured all the seas and all the oceans of the world! The next stop is the charming Château Robillard and its landscaped park, a peaceful haven for birds. Next to it is a venerable plane tree…

Then climb on the hillside of Montalon, which offers a very beautiful panorama on the valley of the Dordogne. Have fun spotting the old towers of these windmills in the surrounding landscape. Then go to the Château du Bouilh, an unfinished castle. You then reach the palus, where the vines are omnipresent. A small detour on the edge of the Dordogne, at the port of Plagne, a peaceful place where it is good to stroll, can end your walk, before returning to the town.
