This site offers a nice walk in the heights and in the undergrowth of Aubazine
Classified as a historical monument in the mid-1960s, the site underwent four years of restoration work. Reopened since 2010, it offers a nice walk in the heights and in the undergrowth of Aubazine. While walking along the dike path that runs alongside the canal, one can appreciate the audacity it took for these 12th century monks to dig into the rock and build retaining walls on this steep site in order to build a pipe to supply the male monastery, which did not have access to running water!

Beautiful walk to make even with children. Small rise at the beginning and after beautiful landscape. After the waterfall, not to return on its steps but continue the path that leads up to return to Aubazine.
Friendly walk for family. well marked shaded and, no major difficulty but one or two passages where the hands should be a little.

Pas sure qu'il faille monter jusqu'au calvaire pour le retour, il suffit juste de revenir sur ses pas et profiter une deuxième fois de cet incroyable ouvrage réalisé par les moines.
