Description
On this stage in the Aveyron department, we hike on the high plateau until shortly after "Le Mas", then the descent begins down to the Lot, which we are actually following for the first time, and that to the stage town of Espalion. After a few picturesque bends we reach the highlight of this stage, namely the town of Estaing, which lies on the other side of the stream and is connected by an old stone bridge. Estaing is a friendly place that can also be used as a place to stay, because it offers everything a pilgrim's heart and stomach could wish for. The town is dominated by a mighty 15th-century castle, which is open to visitors. The local church is also worth a visit. To continue the stage we have to switch back to the left side of the Lot. In the stage town of Espalion, we will be fascinated by the well-preserved Gothic stone bridge over the Lot.
