The ancient loop in Paussac and St Just is a famous local hike, there is a map and instructions available online.
Taken from the website: -
"Furrowing the village, you will pass the Dovecote Tower, Pierre Peyre of Sacrifice or Ermale or Dermal. Further, climbing site and troglodyte village of XII-XIII centuries. Do not miss the dolmen of Peyrelevade, Neolithic, listed as a historic monument since 1960, and visible sculptures of the portal of a career."
Paussac also has a rock climbing site, if you do not fancy rock climbing it is also a lovely walk, and picnic site.
