VTT Carladez : Les cimes du château de Valon

The start : Lacroix Barrez

Better be warned: if this route is classified as difficult, it is mainly because of the long and demanding ascent from the banks of the Truyère to Bars. For the rest, everything is nothing but contrasts and surprises, magnificent views of the Truyère gorges and the Château de Valon, which it would be a shame not to take the time to visit. Past the hamlet of Le Prat, the gentle route along the Truyère on the Camin d'Olt will bring its share of gentleness before the famous ascent of the plateau!
