Hiking - Château de Messilhac

Delve into the wild Goul valley and see the superb Château de Messilhac emerge from its lush green setting.
A short and interesting shady hike, offering pleasant viewpoints over the Peyrat valley, Mur-de-Barrez on its ridge, the Ronesque rock, and the Goul gorges. A beautiful goal: reaching the Château de Messilhac, a jewel of French Renaissance architecture.
Caution: this is a figure-of-eight trail, so pay close attention to the waymarking. The climbs up to the castle and the hamlet of Trionac are quite steep.
