We pass through some very beautiful natural places and yet so close to Rodez!

Bucolic and peaceful road

The Château de Planèzes is a Renaissance castle, located in the commune of Luc-la-Primaube, in the department of Aveyron. The facades and roofs, the interior decor of the living room and the dining room have been registered as historic monuments since November 7, 1991. The castle and its garden are private and are unfortunately not open to visitors.

It was born from the union of 2 religious buildings in the 13th century: the church dedicated to Ste Mary Magdalene and the Notre-Dame des Monts chapel dedicated to the Virgin and which was already a very popular place of pilgrimage. Its 2 Romanesque bays date from this period. In the 15th century, it took inspiration from the Conques abbey church to rebuild its bell tower, still in the Romanesque style, while its apse was made in the fashion of the time: Gothic. At that time, it was under the protection of the Arpajon family, lords of Calmont-de-Plancatge, who made it their necropolis and contributed to its beautification.

Monument of recognition to Notre-Dame de Ceignac by survivors of the 1914-1918 war. At the foot of the basilica of the same name.

A pretty lake with beautiful views, and its differences in altitude make it interesting for more sporty and dynamic tours of the lake. 2 routes are offered, one of 2.7 km which runs along the lake and the other of 4 km which goes wider to the north of the lake along the road.

Horse racing site and pretty surrounding countryside

A small path goes around the lake. Picnic tables and drinking fountain on the banks.
