Montgros

A small village on the Aubrac plateau that offers a welcome break in the long stretch between Aumont-Aubrac and Nasbinals. There's a gite d'etape here and possibly a small bar or restaurant in season. The village sits on the Rieu Tort stream, whose name means "twisted stream" in Occitan.

The Romanesque church is worth a glance. Rieutort provides an intermediate stopping option for those who don't want to push all the way to Nasbinals in one go.

The Road

From Rieutort the path continues south across the Aubrac plateau toward Nasbinals, roughly 10 km away. The terrain remains open and gently rolling. Montgros, the last hamlet before Nasbinals, is about halfway.

Great kiosk with outdoor seating for coffee, cakes and more. Welcome stop at the entrance to the village.

We highly recommend spending the night (or several) at this upscale accommodation. Warm welcome by host who speaks English fluently. Beautiful decor in spacious rooms with careful attention to detail.

Perfect for couples and families. This would also be perfect for a honeymoon or romantic getaway. Completely worth a splurge!

They are also known for their outstanding meals. Be sure to reserve at least 48 hours in advance for dinner.

Directions for those on the GR65: 2 km after the WC at Rieutort D'Aubrac, cross the Pont de Marchastel bridge and turn left toward the waterfall (Cascade du Deroc). La Borie de l'Aubrac is .5 km.
