Trail Reviews

Lord Helmchen
April 16, 2025, Gorge d'Alzou nach Rocamadour

Rocamadour is a regional highlight in itself, with its medieval town beneath the rock, the sanctuary, and the old castle above it. But our secret and very surprising highlight was the Gorge d'Alzou with the ruins of old mills. After the heavy rains of the last few days, the river was rushing and loud. Some of the paths were flooded, but it was wonderful 🤗
