Which side of the plane to sit from Castres-Mazamet Airport (Castres) to Agen-La Garenne Airport (Agen)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more diverse landscape, featuring the rugged slopes of the Montagne Noire and, on clear days, a breathtaking distant view of the Pyrenees mountain range to the south.
Montagne Noire
The southernmost tip of the Massif Central, visible immediately after takeoff with its dense forests and dark peaks.
Pyrenees Panorama
During clear weather, the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees are visible on the far southern horizon.
Toulouse Suburbs
As the flight progresses West, you'll pass the northern periphery of the 'Pink City', catching glimpses of the Garonne river loops.
Canal du Midi
Look for the thin ribbon of the historic UNESCO-listed canal snaking through the landscape toward the Atlantic.
Gers Countryside
Golden fields of sunflowers and rolling hills typical of the Gascony region as you approach Agen.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct southern sun glare. This side is essential for spotting the Pyrenees; look early in the flight for the best high-altitude visibility. Keep your camera ready for the contrast between the dark Montagne Noire and the bright Garonne valley.
Agout River
The winding Agout river provides a scenic silver thread through the Tarn landscape shortly after departure.
Gaillac Vineyards
The ancient vine-covered slopes of Gaillac, one of the oldest wine-growing regions in France, are clearly visible.
Montauban
View the 'City of Ingres' with its distinctive red-brick architecture and the historic Pont Vieux over the Tarn.
Quercy Plateaus
To the North, the limestone plateaus of Quercy offer a more rugged, cliff-lined contrast to the valley floor.
Garonne Junction
Watch the confluence of the Tarn and Garonne rivers as the flight descends toward the Agen-La Garenne runway.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun moves south, lighting up the red bricks of Montauban and the green vineyards of Gaillac. It offers a more detailed view of the intricate river systems and agricultural patterns of the Tarn-et-Garonne department.
