Marcilhac-sur-Célé is on the way to Santiago de Compostela (variant 651 of the GR65).

Organized around its abbey whose Romanesque church has preserved an austere beauty, this village exudes tranquility and bathes in the freshness of the banks of the Célé.

It seems very tiny next to these large limestone cliffs!

The English Castle of Bouziès

Highlight • Castle

High on the road from Cahors to Saint-Cirq Lapopie, nestled in the cliffs, lies the English castle of Bouziès. You can see fortifications from the 11th and 12th centuries, anchored in the limestone rock. The Château des Anglais served as a refuge to protect the population in case of attack.

The interior is not open to visitors. View of the castle from the road or the metal bridge of Bouziès.

Bouzies

Highlight • Settlement

Bouziès is a small village with only 80 inhabitants. It is located at the confluence of the Lot and Célé valleys and in the heart of the Causses du Quercy Regional Natural Park. In Bouziès you can take a boat trip or rent a boat.

You can take a nice walk here along the Chémin de Halgage towpath, which was carved into the rock wall along the banks of the Lot. Le Château des Anglais is also definitely worth a visit. It is illuminated between Easter and All Saints' Day.

Cahors

Highlight • Settlement

Cahors, a city of art and history, is built on a loop of the Lot Valley. Not to be missed: the sublime Valentré bridge, a UNESCO world heritage site, the heart of the city and its 26 secret gardens and the market, at the foot of the Cathedral, which is held every Wednesday and Saturday morning.
