From late September, the banks of the Aubelle take on copper tones. It is the time for long walks: low light, undergrowth smelling of humus and, with luck, ceps in the oak wood.
Three walks to see the colours
- The riverbank loop, early morning for the mist.
- The ridge path, for the view over the whole valley.
- The boardwalk across the peat bog, russet at this time of year.
And on the plate
Local restaurants switch to autumn dishes: stews, mushrooms, Granges squash. The farm inn serves Sunday meals until All Saints’ Day.
“Autumn is the season when you have the river to yourself.”
