This getaway which is devoted to historical heritage, follows several trails and a path that is cut into the rock and leads you on the borderline of the Rougier de Camarès, an amazing patchwork of red ochre soils.From the village centre of Sylvanès take a small road (between the Town Hall and the restaurant) that leads to Maxels.In the hamlet, take the left path and ford the brook twice, walk the ascending path up to a trail intersection.Once you have ford across the brook again, take the left trail and walk around the Bataille farm to the right, the trail continues to rise. On the plateau, take the left trail that leads to the road and to the village of Gissac. Enjoy the scenic view over the Rougier de Camarès, the pic de Roste, the Merdelou and the Monts de Lacaune. Walk across the village of Gissac (castle and washing place are worth to be seen) and head towards the Montaigut castle on D105.At the exit of the village take right a bouissière that runs down towards the Moulin (formerly a fish farm). Walk across the Moulin and go for approximately 600 m up a small road.Before the hamlet of Douzou, take right a track, then at the junction of 4 trails take the one opposite which leads to the Besc hillside catchment reservoir. After the reservoir, take the left trail that gradually rises. Follow this main trail up to a hairpin bend on the right side.100 m after the hairpin bend, take to the left a recently completed pathway (be careful not to miss the trailhead). The path rises zigzagging through the woodland, crosses a 1st trail and joins a 2nd one which is to be followed on the left.Approximately 200 m after this intersection, leave the ascending path to the right and follow the contour line. The hike has already provided magnificent views over the Rougier and far in the distance, offered a first vision of the Montaigut castle. Keep walking up to a field, the logging road runs down to the left and goes along a 2nd field.You soon leave this path to take a track (cairn) which starts to the right of the field. This track crosses a trail and reaches the abandoned farmhouse of Gaujoux. After the farm, go ahead along the track that turns into a path and follows the contour line towards the Montaigut castle. Keep walking on the main path overlooking the Rougier. This path that crosses the Aigue Lebade ravine has been often hewn out of the rock.  The path goes along the plaster mill before reaching the Montaigut castle

A tourist trail takes you through 10 remarkable sites, offering a glimpse into the history of this charming medieval village (the old bridge, the two castles, the Marquise garden, etc). A leaflet, available from the Tourist Information Office in Brassac and from the town hall, will take you along the narrow streets on both banks of the River Agout. At each stop, you'll be able to admire the present and glimpse the past of this medieval village, with the help of a number of panels throughout your visit. This village will win you over first and foremost with its castles and its old 12th-century bridge, one of two in the département to be listed as a historic monument. But it's the spirit of Brassac that will make you want to linger. Whether you're a sportsman or just a fan of the 3rd half, the village spirit is ingrained in our genes. Here, everything is a pretext for a moment of conviviality. And before you leave, don't miss a visit to the basket gallery or the Jaël de Romano cultural centre. Get off the beaten track! Get on your bikes and explore the many downhill, enduro, cross-country and lake route circuits. There's something for every taste and level. This is where the X Cross takes place, the benchmark event on the international mountain bike calendar. The countryside around Brassac is also a great playground for fishing and canoeing. The Brassac festivals are a must! At the beginning of August, come and immerse yourself in the conviviality and good humour for 5 days!
