Nice lake, well-maintained, you can sit in the grass by the water. We only passed by, but it's worth stopping.

A place worth seeing, I'll go inside tomorrow. Okay, only worth seeing from a distance, the church on the hill is quite pretty. But the large main road and the huge parking lot in the city center didn't encourage me to take a longer break. I've seen other beautiful places.

Pretty lake of Saint-Gervais, which can be circumnavigated by a 2.5 kilometer path. On the banks, there are picnic tables in the shade, a supervised swimming area in summer and a children's playground.

Aveyron village with narrow streets and slate roof houses. It is the capital of Aubrac but also of the famous Laguiole knives. Do not miss the statue of the ox, in the center of the place du fairground, where a market is held every Saturday morning.
