Gorges du Tarn (Tarn Canyon)
The Gorges du Tarn is a canyon formed by the Tarn River between the Causse Méjean and the Causse de Sauveterre, and is shared between the Lozère département, and the the Aveyron département.
To the north of Millau, the numerous torrents of the Tarn have carved a real canyon in the limestone plateau. Fabulous and varied sections await both those who will discover them whilst walking along the footpaths and roads as those who will do so from the water. The limpid calm waters are ideal for a large number of activities: rafting, canyoning, kayaking etc.. And heritage and culture lovers won’t be disappointed either: historic vestiges, châteaux, fortresses and churches line the gorges.
