Description

The Arles Route is one of the four routes leading to Santiago de Compostela.

Stretching 115 kilometers along the Tarn River, the route crosses part of the Montagne Noire from Dourgne before reaching Castres, descending into the Sidobre, and then crossing the Montagne Noire once more to Murat-sur-Vèbre.
You’ll have the chance to see a wide variety of landscapes featuring lush green forests and refreshing lakes, as well as plains—not to mention granite “monuments” such as menhir statues and natural wonders that are sure to pique your curiosity.
A sight you definitely won’t want to miss!
