ヴェリエールのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The massive structure rising above the landscape at this location – with its round dome (although only the vaulting ribs of the roof dome were built, the actual roof covering was never completed) and the lantern erected above it – and crowned by a cross, doesn't seem to quite fit with the small sacred monument at its peak. User 'Cx' has already provided information in his post about the history of the building and the originally planned statue of the Madonna, which was supposed to bestow its blessing upon the land and its people from here.

You can visit a small museum in July and August.

birthplace of the French naturalist J.H. colour.

The Puech Fontaneilles is topped with a monumental pedestal. Indeed, from the 19th century, a project to build a Virgin was launched with the construction of the pedestal. Problem: once completed, the statue ordered in Belgium never arrived on site (suggesting a scam) and today a cross has finally taken the place of the statue. Anyway, the site offers a magnificent view of the Tarn valley.

essential hike in the heart of this magnificent region, accessible to all, guaranteed views whatever the time of day or year.

The Pic du Pal is classified as a natural area of ecological fauna and flora interest. There is an orientation table with an unobstructed view of the Aveyron valley, the Aubrac and Cantal mountains. Superb path to get there, a bit technical in places.

Flagship viaduct of Aveyron before the construction of that of Millau. The small village of Verrière spreads out in the bottom of the valley, along the Lumensonesque stream.
