Hiking

The Ouysse is a river which flows in barrels for the majority of its course. It rejoins Lacave through the deep canyons digging in its path. Going up its path, towards Rocamadour, you will then be caught between the cliffs forming its canyon. Old fortified mills line the route, sometimes adjoining the rock of the cliffs.

Mountain biking

The Ouysse is a river that flows underground for most of its course. It reaches Lacave through the deep canyons carved along its path. As you follow its path towards Rocamadour, you'll find yourself caught between the cliffs that form its canyon. Old fortified mills mark the route, sometimes clinging to the rocks of the cliffs.
