A favorite from this bike ride: Brousse-le-Château. A perfectly preserved medieval village, nestled on the banks of the Tarn. Between heritage, tranquility, and beautiful panoramas, it's the kind of place that reminds us why we love to travel by bike.

A fortified castle on the Route des Seigneurs du Rouergue in Aveyron, overlooking its medieval village, classified as one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France. Standing proud with its towers and fortified walls, the castle dominates the Tarn Valley, between Albi and Millau.

Pretty little perched village which is part of the association Les Plus Beaux Villages de France. Since 1960 the castle and the houses of the village have been restored.

The Tower of Peyrebrune is the vestige of a medieval fortress perched at an altitude of 913m above the Alrance valley and which was the seat of the Seigniory of Peyrebrune. The tower has been restored and the site is very pleasant.

From the Lincou bridge, the view of the Tarn which meanders through this part of the valley is superb.
