Description
Welcome to the easternmost loop of the Lamonzie-Montastruc commune, at the gateway to the Liorac forest. The 9.8 km route takes you along the Louyre watershed to admire the remains of a former flagship of the local economy: tobacco growing. From the 17th to the 20th century, tobacco cultivation had a lasting impact on the Dordogne valley. After several stages of intense threshing, the tobacco passed through these drying kilns before being packaged and sent off to the world's cigarette markets.
