Discover Montmeyran

Montmeyran brings together golf, walking and cycling routes, historic sites, local workshops and creative classes. If you’re looking for a hotel in Montmeyran, these activities can help shape your stay: from a stroll through the town centre to a longer cycling loop, with culture and crafts along the way. Depending on whether you want to spend time outdoors, explore local history or get creative yourself, you can choose different highlights for your trip.

Golf in Montmeyran

Easygolf offers an 18-hole executive golf course in Montmeyran, with a par of 63. The course features a river, several water hazards, numerous doglegs and established vegetation. These features give the course its distinctive layout. As course conditions may change, check the latest operating information before your trip.

Walking and cycling routes

La balade du coteau is a 2 km walking trail through a sensitive natural area, with elevated viewpoints. Trail conditions can change with the seasons, so check the latest information before setting out. In the town centre, the 1.2 km Circuit patrimoine bâti takes you past traces of the past. The two walks differ both in length and focus: one highlights the natural setting and its viewpoints, the other the built heritage in the town centre.

There are other options for longer routes. Le Tour du Mourayer is 6 km long and can also be ridden by mountain bike. La cyclocurieuse is a 22 km cycling loop that takes in local initiatives accessible by bike from Montmeyran town centre. The different lengths and formats can help you plan, without treating the routes as equivalent: one is a shorter route with a mountain bike option, while the other is a longer cycling loop.

Local history and landscape

At the summit of the Le Coteau molasse hill, ruins recall the medieval castle and its surrounding wall. The Circuit patrimoine bâti walk in the town centre offers a different perspective on the past. The hilltop ruins and traces in the town centre thus represent two different ways to explore Montmeyran’s history.

The landscape also has its own distinctive features: orchids grow on the dry grasslands of Montmeyran’s slopes. There are also shady riverbanks along the streams and rivers that run through the commune. These natural features add further things to consider when planning a stay, alongside the walking and cycling routes.

Workshops and creative activities

At Pâquerette’s workshop in Montmeyran, she makes functional pottery from French clays. Pâquerette shapes the pieces on a pottery wheel and decorates them by hand. She welcomes visitors every day throughout the year by prior appointment. Arrange your visit in advance and confirm whether your preferred time is available.

L’Atelier des Trois Couleurs offers adult workshops on Thursdays in drawing, watercolour and acrylic painting, landscape and portrait painting, and collage. During the main season from March to September, D’Âme des Champs runs monthly workshops in the flower field: participants pick flowers and make their own bouquet. The activities and schedules vary, from a workshop visit by appointment to a regular Thursday session and a seasonal flower workshop.
