A spectacular landscape where history and the art of living coexist
Carved out by the Aveyron river, the gorges form a spectacular landscape where the river rushes through the rocks and green environment. Forged by water millions of years ago, they are a haven of unspoilt nature. There are no canyons here, just cliffs opening onto valleys and picturesque villages, letting the river flow peacefully by.
Between medieval villages, castles, remarkable gardens, panoramic views, abbeys, chapels and old stones, the Aveyron gorges and causses are a constant source of wonder.
All year round, they offer a multitude of secret spots, ideal for nature lovers and heritage enthusiasts alike. Epicureans gather at the markets to sample local produce or bargain for local crafts in a convivial atmosphere.
The Causses and Gorges de l'Aveyron are simply and naturally synonymous with an invitation to take your time, to observe, move, breathe and enjoy an unforgettable experience!
