Condorcet: Trails and History

Sentier de Condorcet: Village Church, Information Boards and Panorama

The Sentier de Condorcet begins next to the village church. Several information boards cover history and agriculture. The boards also address the ideas of the Marquis and mention Condorcet-les-Bains as well as a panorama. Those planning the starting point can combine historical, agricultural and scenic interests along this section of the trail. For initial orientation, this section of the trail can be planned as a separate focus of a visit to the village.

Château de Condorcet: Panorama and Preserved Fortification

The Château de Condorcet offers a panorama. A tower and a curtain wall have been preserved among the upper fortifications of the Château de Condorcet. When planning a visit, both aspects can provide a focus: the panorama as a landscape theme, and the tower and curtain wall as architectural remains. Those weighing landscape against architectural history can consider both perspectives separately.

Castle Ruins, Church and Cemetery in the Village de Condorcet

The castle ruins in the Village de Condorcet date from the 13th century. The Church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste in the Village de Condorcet dates from the 17th century, while the old cemetery is still fully preserved. In addition, there is the Cluniac priory of Condorcet, dedicated to Saint Peter, which was destroyed in the 14th century.

Hiking Trails, Horse-Riding Trails and Mountain Bike Circuits

The GR9 is one of the hiking and horse-riding trails in Condorcet. In addition, Condorcet has several mountain bike circuits. For active days, distinguishing between the types of trails provides a clear basis for planning: hiking and horse riding are the focus on the GR9, while mountain bike tours are the focus on the circuits.

Montagne Reyssas, Le Cougoir and Serre de la Fraissière are located in the surrounding area of Condorcet; all three are mountains. Montagne la Croix is located near Condorcet and is also a mountain. The mountain destinations can be considered individually when making a regional selection.
