Les Gorges de l'Ardèche
The Ardèche Gorges are in the south of the Ardèche département, stretching about thirty kilometres between the famous Pont d'Arc at Vallon-Pont-d'Arc and Saint-Martin-d'Ardèche.
The Ardèche Gorges are the most visited site in the département and are classified as a "nature reserve".
You are dazzled by the scenery offered by the meanders of the Ardèche river. You follow its course from below or from the plateaus that overlook it, through holm oak woods in particular. Its masterpiece: the Pont d'Arc, an imposing natural stone arch.
Things to do: hiking, canoe-kayak, climbing, caving...
