Château de Penne

Highlight • Castle

On their spectacular rocky outcrop, the ruins of the Château de Penne still dominate the village and the Aveyron.
Built in the Merovingian era, it has seen many wars, especially during the Cathar era and during the Hundred Years War.

Highlight (Segment) • Other

It goes downhill with a tandem and its luggage but it gets a little rough. Clearly not for gravel, but certainly pleasant for mountain biking 👍
At the start the trail is wide but it is a single track trail for a good part of the section.

The Aveyron is a river in southern France. It rises in the Massif Central, near the town of Sévérac-le-Château. The department of Aveyron was named after this river. The river flows through three departments of the Occitanie region: Aveyron, Tarn and Tarn-et-Garonne.

Beautiful example of a hidden valley quite numerous in the region. not easily accessible by car, even locals can ignore these little wonders. A very nice single to the north, a wider and shaded path to the south. to combine with a visit to Grésigne ...
