Gascony provides some great walking countryside through an undulating terrain of woods, fields and vineyards - and with interesting towns and villages not too far apart.

In the following pages, accessible only from this one, we have provided some basic information about a number of local walks and also the 'Coeur de Gascogne' walk, which takes six days!

'Janice's Birthday Walk' is a round trip of around an hour directly from and to the house, which we instigated in 2005 as part of an anniversary. Details are included in the House Book which we will provide when your booking is confirmed.
