Explore the charm of Saint-mezard, Gers, Midi-Pyrénées

This easy walk takes place in the rounded hills of the Gascony hillsides, accompanying for a few kilometres the pilgrims towards Santiago de Compostela, for whom the goal is 1063 km, the distance indicated on the totem pole installed by the FFRandonnée.

This circuit allows you to discover, from the ridge paths, numerous panoramas on the hillsides of Gascony, delimiting the departments of Gers and Lot-et-Garonne. You can also see the bastide of Lamontjoie, founded in 1298 on a regular plan, with a central square and a parish church. It is surrounded by ramparts and ditches which were transformed into a garden at the end of the 18th century. Outside the walls of the bastide, two convents were founded in the 17th century: that of the Cordeliers in 1623 and that of the Poor Clares in 1667, of which a wing and part of the cloister have been preserved.

Marmont-Pachas, a village without a town, is notable for its church with a round, tapering stone bell tower. This is where this hike starts, through very open, rounded hillsides, which accompanies the pilgrims of St-Jacques, from the Aouillès farm to the old cemetery near Curton.

The paths on this route are often paved. The shimmering surface of this large lake - more than a kilometre long - catches the eye. The church of St. Vincent, separated from its bell tower, is also worth seeing, as well as many panoramas, including those of St. Vincent, Manne, Pane Baque, etc..

Musical stroll with the "Voix du Sud", a bucolic stroll through the rounded hillsides of Gascony to discover the vineyard and its ancient vineyard huts.

From villages to viewpoints, during this walk you will be able to see the valleys of the Gers and the Garonne, the wide horizons of the Brulhois area, from East to West and the hills of Gascony to the South. This tour will make you discover the vineyard huts, built in the commune of Astaffort between 1880 and 1950. They belonged to the inhabitants of the village, shopkeepers, teachers, roadmenders, craftsmen, notables and farmers. When one left for the vineyard, one spent the day and sometimes the night there. The hut served as a shelter and a place to live for the winegrowers and the draught animals, cows or horses, as well as a shed for the tools and equipment specific to this crop. Some were of classical construction, in local stone, others in brick, dry earth or wood, depending on the means or personality of the owner.

On this rugged circuit in the hills of Gascony, you can accompany pilgrims walking to Santiago de Compostela or horsemen following the footsteps of Henri IV in Albret.

There are many viewpoints along this hike in the south of the department. From the top of the rounded hills, the Agenais to the north and the Gers to the south are visible.

This long, rugged route, dotted with numerous water reservoirs, offers several viewpoints on the surrounding Gascony hillsides, and promontory villages such as Montagnac-sur-Auvignon, Moncaut...
