TOUR DE FRANCE 2013

Most years the Tour de France passes through the Tarn - in 2010/11 only a couple of kms away from Puycalvel - but next year will be particularly convenient for guests in our gites, as one stage ends at Albi on July 5th and the next start off from Castres on the 6th.

It is fun to watch the pack race by, but this time guests will be able to be at the 'arrivée' and or 'départ' which will be far more interesting.

Here's the whole route for any biking enthusiasts planning a holiday around the tour.
