Ambiance

Standing on its promontory since the 12th century, the imposing priory of Saint-Michel des Anges takes hikers under its protection before they escape towards the Triouzoune valley, then walk up through woods and hamlets to find an old 'chapoule' or watering place while they admire the diversity of the landscape. Two variants allow you to shorten the main route.

Access

From Meymac, take the D 979 road towards the A 89 motorway. When you reach the D 1089, in the centre of Saint-Angel, turn right towards Tulle, then 100 m further on, turn left at the post office and the town hall. Park in the car park.
