| Gascony and the Lot-et-Garonne region have
some of France’s prettiest countryside. A number of interesting structures
command attention too, including the 549 metre long aqueduct at Agen
with it’s 23 arches. Take the little river Baïse and you will wind
your way through deepest countryside.
Its towns, Vianne and Nerac, possess all the charm of a Medieval book of Hours. Carry on up the Baïse as far as Valence and visit the Abbey of Flaran, rated a masterpiece of Cistercian art. |
Wherever you go, you’ll find yourself in
a region of good living and great eating. The Lower Lot, recently
re-opened for cruising, takes you from Aguillon to Villeneuve-sur-Lot and
the centre of the medieval bastide country, as well as the plum orchards
which produce the famous " pruneaux ".
