Our next 2025 event will be a visit on Tuesday 8 July 2025 to Roquefort-sur-Soulzon in the Aveyron.
On the Causse du Larzac, the town is famous for its blue cheese. We have a no-cost one-hour guided tour in the late morning of the Caves d’affinage of one of the best known producers, Roquefort Papillon (https://www.roquefort-papillon.com/).
There will be a light lunch in the town and an afternoon tour (€6) of the Museum and viewing platform of the Millau Viaduct, 20 mins (19 km.) away. On the building of the latter, the world’s tallest bridge, there is an excellent documentary available on YouTube and entitled‘Viaduc de Millau : le défi architectural du siècle’.
Both in Roquefort and at the viaduct, there is a certain amount of walking involved.
Given the travel distances involved for many of us, a number will be spending one or even two nights in the town of Millau itself and so there will be a chance for those coming to meet up in the evening, should they so wish.
Members should contact Nigel if they wish to book this visit. The deadline is 30th June.
