This area is beautiful! Don't be afraid to venture off the path. It's worth it to walk among the rock formations and take in the sights!

A truly impressive place, a must-see if you've ever been to this region. I also recommend taking the audio tour. Overnight stays are available at Camping & Gîtes En Campagne, 18 km west of Oradour-sur-Glane.

The village lake with its beach offers many possibilities for leisure: beach volleyball, games for children, bowling green, tennis, and a snack bar. With bathing allowed and some supervised bathing periods, it's a great place to spend the day or just take a break while passing by.

Local legend has named this place the Rochers des Fées and Pas de la Mule but in fact excavations of the site have revealed that it was used as a Bronze Age shelter with artifacts and remains found in the structure.

Body of water in the village with authorized and supervised swimming. Beach volleyball court, snack bar and campsite nearby. Great stop for lunch or evening.

Center of memory and martyr village of Oradour-sur-Glane. The village has been kept in ruins for memory, following the massacre of its inhabitants in 1944 during the Second World War. A poignant site that can be visited all year round and free of charge.

In the town of Vaulry (87140). A hexagonal tower was built in 1863 and enlarged in 1868 in front of the influx of pilgrims. It was restored in 1996, following damage. La Chapelle is known for its Werewolf legends and satanic masses decades ago. https://haute-vienne.meconnu.fr/la-chapelle-notre-dame-de-vaulry https://www.lepopulaire.fr/vaulry-87140/actualites/limousin-etrange-le-jour-ou-le-loup-garou-est-revenu_12680590/
