The "free way"

by the Regional Natural Park
of the Causses of Quercy

It is a very special book, an open-air comic strip, made up of 14 stories drawn on stones then built in the dry stone walls, which we invite you to discover!

It is traveled along the way for nearly 15 kilometers between Bach and Laburgade, a section of the GR65-Via Podensis listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the Chemins de Compostelle.

A book drawn with 4 hands by the artists Troubs and Edmond Baudoin, two authors, designers and great travellers.

They painted on the stones of the country, played hollows and bumps to tell the landscapes, the journey, the meeting...

Just follow the red and white markings to discover the stones drawn along the way!
