Family cycling tours in Tarn basin |

"Active" cycling tour along Tarn river between
Albi and Millau, so almost flat if you want or hilly if you prefer on the
hills (slopes of the valley) from 300m alt. up to 700m.
When biking the whole old railway line up to St. Affrique (8-day tour) you will ride past 6 railway bridges and through 10 railway tunnels. For holiday makers who don't like tunnels: you will be able to avoid the longer ones (more than 100m).
Albi is a beautiful, Southern
Italian like town along the Tarn river. With its famous architecture, alike
Toulouse, from which it is only 75 kms away, its cathedral, of the times of
the Cathares and its Museum Toulouse Lautrec it is a perfect start and end
for a family cycling holiday. Restaurants and hotels in this trip are of excellent
quality.
On your way to and from Millau you will ride under and above the viaduc de Millau. You will be cycling daily
50-60 km average through the friendly Valley of the Tarn.
