The Ségala
The Ségala is a plateau at the borders of Tarn and Aveyron, away from the main tourist routes. Its rolling landscapes, rivers and forests make it an ideal territory to recharge with family or friends.
From the gîte, the panoramic view stretches over the Tarn gorges and the hills of Aveyron. The surroundings hold many surprises: castles, medieval villages, local markets and regional produce.
