Hiking

Lamontjoie, a route from Lot-et-Garonne to Gers

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