From
Toulouse Airport.
Leaving the airport follow the sign for Toulouse, then
signs for Albi. These will lead you round the Toulouse
ring road to the péage (tollgate) for the A68 to
Albi. (Toll 1.30 euros). Stay on the A68 until exit 9
for Gaillac/Cordes. From Gaillac take the D 964 towards
Castelnau de Montmiral. Go through Castelnau towards Puycelsi.
A couple of KMs after Puycelsi – you will see the
fortified village up on your right – you will come
into a small hamlet with a stone barn on the right and
two houses on the left. The second house has pale blue
shutters. Between these two houses is a small track –
very easily missed! – with a sign for Pont Bourguet.
Go left onto this track and follow it over the bridge
and to the château.

this motorway until the Caussade exit.
Go through Caussade following signs for Gaillac, then
Montricoux. Go through Montricoux towards Bruniquel. At
Bruniquel take the road (the D 964) signposted Gaillac
and Larroque. Around four KMs after Larroque you will

in fact a small track. Follow the track over the bridge
