Chemin de Halage

Description

Balade le long du Lot, dans un cadre magnifique, qui vous mènera du port de Bouziès au pied de St Cirq Lapopie (ou l'inverse). A partir du chemin de halage, les "gabarres" (bateaux à fond plat) étaient tirées en convoi par des hommes ou des animaux de trait.

A la hauteur de l'écluse de Ganil, la falaise tombe à pic dans la rivière, ce qui a obligé les hommes à creuser la roche calcaire de la falaise à la seule force des bras en 1845 sur près d'1km.

Il est agrémenté d'un bas-relief sur 30m de long, sculpté en 1985 par l'artiste toulousain Daniel MONNIER. Il évoque sa représentation de la rivière et de son environnement : faune, flore, roches, fossiles et tourbillons.

2h-2h30 aller-retour.
