From the fortified town of Laparade, which offers a clear view of the Lot Valley, this route takes you through the hills of Guyenne, between ridge roads, steep valleys, and agricultural plateaus.

The route leads you to one of the region's most remarkable trees: the great Tombebœuf oak. Isolated in the middle of a meadow, it impresses with its size and appearance. Listed since 2003, it was voted "Tree of the Year" by Terre Sauvage magazine in 2019. A break is essential to admire this century-old tree and its peaceful environment.

The return to Laparade is a loop with varied profiles. The terrain is moderate but consistent, with some steep climbs and some winding descents.

This circuit offers an immersion in the hilly landscapes of the northern part of the department. It reveals a wide variety of atmospheres and allows you to discover a discreet and natural heritage. Ideal for taking the time to explore Lot-et-Garonne away from the most well-known routes.

Perched more than 150 meters above the Lot Valley, the fortified town of Laparade offers a spectacular view from its belvedere and public garden. Founded in 1265 by Alphonse de Poitiers, it preserves traces of its defensive past: ramparts, moats, and ancient fortified gates.

Tombeboeuf Oak

Highlight • Other

Isolated in the middle of a meadow, the Tombeboeuf oak has watched over the landscapes of the eponymous town for nearly 300 years. Standing 25 meters tall and with its wide corolla-like branches, it impresses with its stature and beauty. Classified as a Remarkable Tree since 2003 and voted Tree of the Year in 2019, it is visible from the road. A must-see for lovers of nature and living heritage.
