This dry-stone art-refuge work is the first of the “Windows on the Landscape” open-air art trail on GR 65. Designed by artist-architects from the A Encore-Heureux Collective and Pieter Dijkstra at the invitation of Derrière Le Hublot and the Parc naturel régional des Causses du Quercy, Géoparc Mondial Unesco, Super-Cayrou consists of two caselle dry-stone tents and a terrace to contemplate an exceptional landscape.
Built by Vincent Caussanel and his team of dry stone builders, Super-Cayrou revives and reinvents the traditional know-how of lauziers. More than one hundred tons of stone, extracted from the Grèzes micro-quarry, were needed to build it! Corbel seats, roofs of lauzes on corbelled vault, stubborn and sound of stones will have (almost) no more secrets for you!

GOOD DRIVING
You are on a sensitive and fragile site.
Be respectful of it:
Super-Cayrou was born of a shared initiative between Derrière Le Hublot, scène conventionnée d’intérêt national, the Parc Naturel Régional des Causses du Quercy UNESCO World Geopark and the commune of Gréalou. Super-Cayrou is part of the artistic adventure “Windows on the landscape” led by Derrière Le Hublot and the Agency of the Compostela routes, which receives support from the European Union via the LEADER program (FEADER/ L’Europe s investit dans les zones rurales), the DRAC Occitanie, the Région Occitanie, the ANCT Massif Central.
