You have to cross the stream by a footbridge to be able to observe, in a row, the Arifat waterfalls. The highlight of the visit is undoubtedly this impressive 80-meter waterfall, shaped by the stream. The site is particularly sensitive and fragile, be sure to stay on the paths.

The Tarn valley is steep enough that leaving it involves a nice climb, 5 to 6 km with passages at 10%. And multiple routes around Ambialet.

A nice easy ride from Alboi Cathedral to Lombers. Turn around after a treat at the award winning Boulangerie Pâtisserie Maison Ginestet-Cros.

As you come down the D74 road and around the last corner before entering town, you get a splendid view of the village of Ambialet and the old hilltop Cathar fortress. Both look as if they have naturally emerged from the local rock-bed over the past few centuries. There is one restaurant and two cafes in town as well as a cafe and small hotel just over the bridge on the other side of town.

44 kilometers long, an old railway line linking the towns of Albi and Castres has been converted into a greenway (sand track 3m wide).

If the peninsulas formed by meanders are relatively common, here the isthmus which prevents the Tarn from shooting straight is only about ten meters wide, which makes it the narrowest and most spectacular of Europe. It is a safe bet that in a few millennia, erosion will eventually lead the Tarn to cross it and thus abandon its arm, as is sometimes the case (cf. Cirque de Navacelle). This geological particularity was in any case exploited from the very beginning of the 1900s for the production of electricity with a factory with magnificent architecture that can be visited.

Ambialet is a magnificent peninsula hugged by a meander of the Tarn. It is dominated by an 11th century priory and the ruins of Saint-Raphaël castle built on a schist needle. A 3.5 km footpath takes you around the site.

Old railway line converted into a cycle path. A car park is located at the start, not far from Albi.
