The B03-tour is an "Moderate Vacation Tour" or a "Challenging Vacation Tour". You can climb to the Mont Aigoual (1659m). You will be cycling in quiet Aveyron, Lozère and Cevennes mountains on fine hilly roads of the Parc Régional Naturel des Grands Causses, near Millau.

A spectacular journey in the gorges (canyons),  followed by the unexpected  scenery of the Pays de Roquefort and you will discover the valley of Tarn river.

You'll start in St. Affrique in Pays de Roquefort. From there on you'll be heading upstream in Tarn valley towards Lozère with its rough Gorges and steep, bare, 700m. high cliff faces.

At the end you'll come back, via the picturesque Nant, on the edge of the Cevennes and the rough limestone plateau of the Larzac, to the starting place St. Affrique.
