La Malène boatmen form cooperative to launch tourism business
At the most spectacular spot of the Tarn gorges, the cliffs narrow and rise up to 500 m high. For centuries, boats were the only ones to serve the valley. Then the creation of the Paris-Béziers railway and the road, the boats were abandoned. In 1940, the boatmen of the Malène grouped together in a cooperative to start tourism. These local children know every meander of the Tarn and all the biodiversity of the banks.
