To lose oneself in the depths of the French country
side remains the privilege of romantics or hikers looking
for a complete break off the beaten track. At Saint
Michel de Lanes, you need only take a small path to
the right of the cemetery and follow it in the evening
breeze or in the fresh air of the morning. It will bring
you to the top of 'the wind hills' to the end of the
world or almost! 1 and a half km from Saint Michel de
Lanes, on the road towards Belflou, another path also
offers a wonderful escape through fields, woods and
hillsides. On the road towards Gourvielle, at the exit
towards Avignonet, a wonderful Tuscan landscape arrests
the eye and intoxicates the imagination. Carrying on
until the hamlet of Gourvielle, one discovers an oak
wood and a peaceful valley a world almost lost...
Without any physical effort and much organisation, the
country-side of olden days is accessible round about
Saint Michel de Lanes ; a pleasure it would be a pity
to miss.
