Saint-Rome-de-Tarn
1 hour 19 from Rodez. Stop: Bourg. Welcome to the Raspes du Tarn. This wild, narrow part of the Tarn Valley is lined with schist rock and lies downstream of Millau.
The landscapes around Saint-Rome-de-Tarn are reminiscent of the Mediterranean. It's a slice of paradise for those in the know: sand-coloured winemakers' houses, wrought iron balconies, Renaissance homes, café under the plane trees and the nearby beautiful Baumes waterfall. Find out more.
Saint-Affrique
1 hour 41 from Rodez. Stop: Gare Routière. This bustling town lies in the Grands Causses Regional Nature Park in the Roquefort area. It's a great spot for outdoor activities.
Hire a mountain bike and ride one of the many trails exploring the surrounding Rougiers area, the Saint-Affricain greenway or venture as far as the Roquefort cheese cellars. And don't forget to experience the heritage of the town affectionately known as "La Villotte", on the banks of the River Sorgues. Find out more.
