Laguepie

Laguépie is a village in the Tarn-et-Garonne department, located at the confluence of the Aveyron and Viaur rivers, right on the border with the Aveyron department. This setting gives the village a landscape shaped by steep valleys, cliffs and the dense greenery typical of the Rouergue and Quercy regions. The village retains the remains of an old castle overlooking the confluence, along with traditional stone houses lining its sloping streets. The River Aveyron, popular for canoeing and fishing, runs through the village and draws outdoor enthusiasts during the warmer months. Laguépie lies close to well-known tourist sites in south-west France, such as Cordes-sur-Ciel and Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, making it a convenient base for exploring the wider area. The local market and regional produce, including foie gras and orchard fruits, reflect the culinary traditions of south-western France. The mild climate, with warm summers, makes the area well-suited to rural tourism and walking amid the wooded, hilly surroundings.
