Oreilles en balade à Salles Courbatiès - Balade sonore

When you arrive at Salles Courbaties, park your car in front of the lake and the magnificent wooden hall built by a group of carpenters. The first point is at the edge of the lake on the left. If you listen to it, you'll learn that you're standing in front of the mill causeway and that Salles Courbaties used to live to the rhythm of the water. Then, with your back to the lake, cross the road and follow the path, passing under the railroad bridge, where the dovecote comes into view. It has just been restored, and the roofer and his son will explain how they re-roofed it. Meanwhile, your children can learn all about dovecotes and dovecotes. Retrace your steps, turn left and walk along the road to a café. The signs are stuck on the wall. This is the café du chat! For the rest, get back in the car and head for the village square of Claunhac, where the dean will tell you all about the party! Then take a stroll through the woods to La Viguerie, where you'll hear all about the washhouses of yesteryear. Your last stop is as you leave Salles Courbatiès, on the road on your right is the "Fil de laine" company. Listen to the history of this business and the construction of the building. Meanwhile, your children can listen to the shearing of sheep. The tour includes six stops. At each listening point, a sign will tell you where to stop. The listening points are independent, so you're free to choose the order and number of times you listen. You can also choose to move from one village to another, focusing on themes such as water, religion, bastides, sauvetés and castrums... You'll find all the information you need on the website. To listen to the audio documents, you can scan the QR codes on the signage or borrow an audioguide. Remember to reserve them at the Town Hall (tel. on the website). 12 communes have been equipped. Find them on the website. The nearest is Peyrusse-le Roc, a 10-minute drive away.
