Gravel riding
Le Merdelou, at around 1,100 m, is one of the highest points in the south of Aveyron. Its summit opens up long perspectives over the Monts d’Orb, the Espinouse and the Caroux, but also over the Somail and the Monts de Lacaune. On a clear day, the view can extend much further, all the way to the Pyrenees and, to the southeast, to the Mediterranean. This high and open position makes Le Merdelou a true observation post for the reliefs of the southern Massif Central.
