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.

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.

Medieval city with 1000 years of history, voted one of the most beautiful villages in France by the French. Many sites to visit, including the Bajén Vega Museum and the Saint-Jacques Chapel.

water available at the public toilets right next to the Mairie (Town Hall).

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.

Church built in the 3rd century on the site of the Château chapel. The fortified bell tower dates from the 15th century. It has been largely rebuilt but retains a certain charm, proudly overlooking the Céor.

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.

Small medieval village ranked among the most beautiful in France, built on the banks of the river. Very beautiful bridge of Candèze, from the Romanesque period and small labyrinthine streets.
