Depending on your interests, we can offer suggestions and help you create a tailored itinerary. With numerous and diverse discovery routes to choose from, let yourself be captivated by the charms of South Aveyron.
A starting point for numerous hikes, a pony club, and many local artisans (arts and crafts). Meet our farmers and taste authentic local flavours. Discover the Durzon Spring (a natural resurgence) or explore the village itself, with its rich heritage and architecture, including historic religious buildings and fascinating functional monuments.
On the heights, the Causse plateau reveals a unique landscape where traditional farms meet 'cazelles' (dry-stone huts), 'lavognes' (natural stone ponds), and the stunning 'ruiniform' rock formations that give this region its wild charm.
In the heart of the valley lies the medieval village of Nant, nicknamed the 'Garden of Aveyron.'
