Above Saint-Martin-de-l'Arçon, a superb view unfolds over the valley and surrounding hills. Choose a sunny day with clear skies to fully appreciate its beauty!

The "tower" is simply a pile of stones. However, the highest point of the plateau is still worth the climb; the view is magnificent in all directions. On a clear day, you can see the Mediterranean from over 1,000 meters above sea level. And on an even better day, you can see the Canigou and the main ridge of the Pyrenees. At night, the city lights are impressive (watch out for wild boars on the way to the parking lot).
