Small section “it goes up and down” 🤣 under the trees it’s quite pleasant even if you have to press a little on the pedals

Bancalié Lake is an artificial lake about 10km in circumference. About twenty minutes south of Albi, it is ideal for a hike along the water.

Birthplace of Jean Jaurès, Castres is one of the highlights of Tarn. Built on the banks of the Agoût, we discover very pretty colorful houses overlooking the quays, places of tanners, dyers and weavers from the 17th century. Also worth seeing is the Bishop's Garden and its boxwood embroidery, as well as the Goya Museum.

Sub-Prefecture of Tarn, Castres is famous for its houses on the Agout, its Goya museum, its rugby club Castres Olympique. Ideally located between Albi, Toulouse and Carcassonne, Castres is at the heart of a living area with nearly 150,000 inhabitants. Its pastel-colored houses, suspended above the Agout river, give it an air of “little Venice”. It is one of its cities with a subtle and deep charm, which combines quality of life, cultural dynamism and economic development. Recognized for the quality of its living environment, Castres is labeled "3 flowers" by the National Council of Cities and Villages in bloom.
