Cascades de Murel, Natural waterfall series in Corrèze, France
Description
The Murel cascades are a series of waterfalls along the Valeine River featuring multiple drops at different heights. Water tumbles into natural pools where it collects before continuing downward through the rocky landscape.
History
These waterfalls took shape over centuries as the river carved through the rock and created the steep gorges we see today. The dramatic landscape features are the result of this natural erosion process.
Culture
Local people come here regularly during warmer months to swim and spend time by the water in a relaxed way. The natural pools have become meeting places for families and friends from nearby villages.
Practical
The waterfalls are reached via a marked hiking path through the landscape with parking available near the entrance. Best to visit during warmer months when the trail is easy to walk and water conditions are comfortable.

One dramatic waterfall in the area, called Saut de la Prade, plunges into the Dordogne River at a significant height. Many visitors miss this feature even though it stands out as one of the most striking sights in the region.
