Les Rivages

Beschrijving

Just before it reaches Millau, the Dourbie river meets the Tarn. This is where you will find the pleasant campsite of Les Rivages, beside the water with lots of greenery. The location is truly wonderful, at the base of the majestic walls of rocky mountains and the huge bridge over the Tarn valley in the horizon. The pebble beach along the Dourbie is a nice and safe playground with shallow waters for young children and a good place for parents for a sunbathe.

You can swim in one of the two pools and you can also get a cool drink there. Children will love the air-trampoline. Who can jump the highest? If you like excellent regional food, the restaurant offers a good choice. There's plenty of entertainment for both young and old.

The old Roman city of Condatomagus is now called Millau. The present Millau is a pleasant city with ancient narrow streets and a city centre with interesting spots to spend some time on a summer evening. Both the Tarn 'gorges' of the Dourbie river are definitely worth a day trip. The spectacular bridge over the Tarn valley has solved the traffic jams in the streets of Millau, meaning fresher air. It's now a great place for mountain biking, fishing, horse riding, walking, canoeing and climbing. The bridge is most spectacular when you look at it from the ground, halfway along the D992, or beside the Tarn on the D41 near Peyre.
