Apart from the hilly start, this hike continues quietly on a vast plateau, stretching from the Lagravette riding school to the Loubas farm, just above the village.

Along this tour, you will discover the church of Saint-Caprais-de-Lerm, a 12th century building in which two chapels are dedicated to the Blessed Virgin and the Sacred Heart. The church possesses the relics of Saint Caprais, patron saint of the parish and of Saint-Eutrope. Its tower-shaped bell tower stands on top of the sanctuary. To the south of this building is a Romanesque door without a tympanum, decorated with tori, diamond points and billets. The cross vaults of the nave are probably from the 14th century. The keystones of the three 16th-century chapels are decorated with escutcheons. After passing through the village of Saint-Caprais-de-Lerm, the walk continues on a vast plateau where you can admire the windmill of Puscla and enjoy the many viewpoints over the valley.
