A small natural and unspoilt town, Dourgne is located at the foot of the Montagne Noire. People come to Dourgne mainly for calm and relaxation, to find themselves far from the hustle and bustle of traditional tourism, put on their walking shoes and set off to discover the natural and vernacular heritage at their own pace. Dovecotes hidden in the countryside, small crosses on the way, fountains and old washhouses... Panoramas too!
