View of Lake Dagueys and the La Calinésie aquatic center

A pleasant little path in the shade. I recently discovered it, and it's enriching my walks in the area.

Quiet recovery 🙂

Path of the pigeons: Every year between 1 October and 15 November, the wood pigeons pass the area in small columns, on their way to the warm south. This is the period when the entire south-west of France is infested with la fièvre bleue, the blue fever. Those who love hunting can be found in one of the palombières for six weeks.

Lovely path through the forest

The linguistic proximity of the "Pont Eiffel", which spans the Dordogne river here, and the low mountain range "Eifel" in the far west of Germany is no coincidence: The family of the designer - whose world-famous Tower of Paris (named after its builder) is probably known to everyone - has German roots. The ancestors of the Eiffel Tower builder Gustave EIFFEL come from the Eifel town of Marmagen (in the Euskirchen district, North Rhine-Westphalia). The village square there - if you are interested, see the following hiking highlight https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1830307 - is named after him.

Worth seeing and impressive bridge, even with a cycle path. Nice view of the railway bridge too.

Worth seeing railway bridge, gigantic construction work.
