I choose to come by train
Base de Vayrac (walks and traveling hikes)
The best service station is that of St-Denis-Près-Martel (4km from the Vayrac ). Indeed, it regularly receives trains from Brive-la-Gaillarde (several per day). You can then come on foot or by taxi (by prior reservation). Vayrac
station is served by TER trains from Brive-la-Gaillarde or Aurillac (one per day). This is the nearest station to reach the center of the village on foot.
Base of St-Sozy
St-Sozy does not have a station. The nearest station is that of Souillac, located about 12 km away. From Souillac, it is possible to take a regional Lio bus, or a taxi (by prior reservation).
