Welcome to the English webpage
of the Quercy Blanc Tourist Office
Montcuq - Castelnau-Montratier
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Montcuq with its 12th century tower is situated in the heart of Quercy Blanc, a region of limestone hills and small river valleys. The mixed farming lends to this area a multitude of colours, with white stone houses and romanesque churches nestling in picturesque villages.
Discover all this on foot or on horseback on the many trails, including the famous St. James Walk. As well as the exceptional Sunday market, where you can find all the quality produce of the area, numerous attractions such as village fêtes, festivals and exhibitions are waiting for you to be shared with the local people. Your children can find, in the Tourist Office, games to learn about the local heritage in a fun way. |

The Quercy Blanc Tourist Office receives the hallmark "Esprit Lot" !
|
|
 |
|
On the 11th December 2015, during a ceremony at the Conseil Général in Cahors, the Tourist Office Team received their diploma "Esprit Lot".
Created and managed by Lot Tourisme, this "hallmark" distinguishes, enhances and promotes products and services from the Lot. In an increasingly virtual world, in which human relations are becoming ever more essential, the Esprit Lot hallmark gives precedence to genuine encounters, to sharing and to real feeling for this area. It guarantees a special welcome throughout our visitors' time here.
|
|
For more details about this hallmark, download the "Esprit Lot" flyer (in French).
