The plateau lies between the Rivers Lot and Aveyron, making both easily accessible. The rivers cut through limestone, forming spectacular cliff scenery. Numerous villages cling to the cliffs. St Cirq Lapopie (top right), close by on the Lot, is one of these and regarded by many as one of the prettiest villages in France.
