Superb route to Puylaurens, don't be fooled by the first few kilometers on a ridge, the course will quickly become a rollercoaster, the Cocagne is hilly, the climbs very often have 2-digit gradients, between 10 and 15% or even a little more, you have to earn it, the landscapes and panoramas are magnificent. « Romaine » is in quotation marks, the path has existed for centuries, the area was indeed occupied during the Gallo-Roman period but it would rather be a very old medieval or even prehistoric track reused over time. Today it is popular with hikers of all kinds, offering vast panoramas of the Montagne Noire, the castle of Magrin (where I passed by following the pretty variant of the Chemin du pastel to the Serre), the Tarn hills and, in clear weather, the Pyrenees.

Contrary to what you might think, only one street is like this, with half-timbering, the rest of the village is ordinary. However, if you pass nearby, it's rather nice and quiet, with plenty of benches for a picnic in the village!

The Romans must have already ridden gravel, this track is such a treat! It's not always flat and it's a bit bumpy, but we want more! The view is also superb.

Small village of lautrécois with a very beautiful medieval square. The church leaning against the ravine is surprising.

This route frequented by man at all times and well before Antiquity follows the ridges (there are some descents in the valleys and therefore climbs) between Massac-Séran and Puylaurens, it offers superb viewpoints and is very pleasant. (be careful, in winter it can be very sticky…). The trace published here follows only part of it.
