Where to practice an individual sport Tarn-Et-Garonne

A dozen marked hiking trails (from 5.5 to 18.5 kilometers) allow you to discover the country of the Two Shores around Valence d'Agen, Goudourville, Espalais or Auvillar... The paths, accessible to all, are practicable on foot, bike or horseback. The circuits must be requested from the tourist offices of the Deux-Rives district (Valence, Auvillar, Donzac). They will provide you with maps and charts even if everything is signposted.

The Équestre Equestrian Centre is located five minutes from the city centre, within the riding complex of the town of Montauban, close to the racecourse and the national stud-gate.

The Golf de Montauban Les Aiguillons offers a flat and wooded course which spreads its fairways over some 5 720 meters. A 9-hole course of medium difficulty, it is embellished with numerous water obstacles (six large lakes with a total surface area of over 8 hectares). The major interest of the site is to be barely 10 minutes from the city center, which remains one of the assets of the city of Ingres: not having really an urban area, you can quickly have your feet in the grass.

This charming establishment, more than 30 years old, is located on the banks of the Garonne, where the key word remains conviviality. The setting is peaceful and the 9-hole course has many water hazards carefully designed to please both beginners and experienced amateurs. The golf school is just as good and the smart ones will particularly appreciate the unlimited golf courses for young people as well as for adults. The Golf d'Espalais regularly organizes competitions in the joy and good mood!

At first a section of the caving group of the Montauban Society of Natural Sciences, it is in 1969 that the group of Caussade takes its autonomy by becoming the "caving-archaeological society of Caussade". Today, the SSAC has become one of the most important and dynamic caving clubs in the Midi-Pyrénées! The club organizes many events all year round to help you discover this little-known but important heritage.

On this easy walk through the heart of the town, you will quickly understand why stone and art are the emblems of Moissac. Starting from the cloister, you will slowly make your way towards the Saint-Pierre abbey church and the tympanum, then, before continuing to the Place des Récollets, make a detour to the former abbey palace. Then take successively the rue du Général-Gras, the rue des Arts and the rue Sainte-Catherine, without missing the beautiful Saint-Jacques church on the way.

On foot or by bike, go to Boudou for this outing to the birds. From the bridge of Coudol you are quickly heading to the leisure base of Saint-Nicolas-de-la-Grave, from which you will enjoy a privileged point of view on the same name, formed by the confluence of the Tarn and the Garonne. If the place is ideal for the practice of nautical activities, it is also a large ornithological reserve, recognized for the diversity of bird species that inhabit it. The observatory is a little further away; to reach it, you will have to walk along the banks of the Garonne over two kilometres. Then continue to the village of Saint-Nicolas-de-la-Grave, before you go back.
