Lots of small villages here.

No fast food here, but the French cuisine, honest food in small family runned hotels where you will get a warm welcome.
attractivefor those who like quiet, simplicity and unspoiled nature. You are cycling in the Parc Régional des Grands Causses in South-Aveyron. Aveyron is also a rich source of (ancient) culture: the district of Templars, medieval cloisters and places of pilgrimage. And... apart from the cyclists and hikers, a renowned district for bird-watching, mountain-biking, a region for those who seek unspoiled nature, hilly stages, valleys and plateaus, called Causses.
