The village has a hairdresser and a bar/café which also sells bread. It is also situated on the Via Podiensis route that is followed by those making the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostella and so receives pilgrims arriving from the town of Figeac. From there pilgrims continue on either to the Notre-Dame de l'Assomption church at Grealou reaching the Lot River at Cajarc or follow the course of the River Cele to its confluence with the Lot, passing by the convent at Espagnac-Sainte-Eulalie.
