ヴァルルフィエのおすすめツーリングルート

Depending on the direction, it's also an ascent, and it's relatively steep.

Driving up there was a sweaty affair. But the view makes it worthwhile.

In addition to everything that's been said, the road runs alongside magnificent cliffs, and you even pass under the rock several times – it's amazing!!

Two large domes dominate the Romanesque nave. They represent the most extraordinary example of the so-called "Aquitanian" architectural style: 16 meters in diameter and 32 meters high; only the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul has a taller dome. Also noteworthy is the small, golden church of Saint-Svair, with its large statue of Emperor Charlemagne, who presented it to the church of Cahors.

Vers is a small village nestled between a cliff and a river, super quiet and full of charm. There's an old mill, a troglodyte castle clinging to the rock, and even an ancient Roman aqueduct carved into the cliff. If you enjoy cycling or walking, the Vers Valley is perfect: shaded, wild, and often secluded from the world.

The path under the cliff is perhaps 500 meters long, and the surface isn't particularly bike-friendly. You also have to share the path with hikers. It's still a really beautiful path, though; the official bike path goes over the cliff, so you can save yourself some elevation gain.

Here, a cycle path separate from car traffic leads through the beautiful countryside for several kilometers, with interruptions. This is a rare find on the Lot Valley Cycle Route.

The building is beautifully painted, the railway line is also there, but there is no railway cycle path.
