Syratu Waterfall
Highlight • Other
The waterfall consists of several levels:
The upper part begins with an almost vertical drop of 50 metres from the edge of the plateau at a height of 600 metres.
This is followed by a second vertical drop of 32 metres, which brings the water to the level of the road.
The lower part of the waterfall extends over a wooded slope and ends at the Loue river, where there are several waterfalls covered with tufa.
To get a general view of the waterfall, you should climb up the left bank after crossing the old bridge over the Loue. The middle part of the waterfall is visible from the road that goes up to the gorges. The lower part, with its wild tuff massifs, can be reached on foot via paths that start on either side of the small bridge over the Syratu stream.

Village of Lods
Highlight • Other
The village has a little more than 200 inhabitants today but the 1850 census counted 1,430, due to two important activities at the time: the forge and the vineyard. Both have left their mark: you can see the ironmasters' house near La Loue and visit the vine museum.
