Brassac

In Brassac, a town on the Agout river, you’ll find yourself in the heart of a vibrant natural environment.

The village of Brassac boasts a remarkable four-arched bridge, old quarters and two châteaux.

But Brassac is also ideally situated in the heart of the Parc Naturel Régional du Haut Languedoc in the Sidobre: from here, the mid-range mountains are yours for the exploring.

At an altitude of 487 metres, in the heart of the Haut-Languedoc Regional Nature Park and on the banks of the Agout river, Brassac lives a quiet, healthy life in the midst of nature.

The historic heart of the village stretches along both sides of the river, linked by the old bridge, a listed historic monument. On each bank a medieval castle has stood the test of time.

One was built by the Catholics, the other by the Protestants. If you visit the Museum of Protestantism in Ferrières, you’ll be able to retrace the history of the Wars of Religion, which are still intimately linked to the history of the Tarn.

Get on your bikes and explore the many downhill, enduro, cross-country and lake route circuits…

There’s something for every taste and level. This is where the Brassac X Cross championship takes place, a benchmark event on the international mountain bike calendar.

The countryside around Brassac is also a great playground for fishing, hiking, canoeing and trail running (BrassacAtrail).

The Brassac festivals are a must-see! At the beginning of August, come and enjoy 5 days of fun and good humour!
