Grotte Saint- Marcel

Highlight • Gorge

Classified as a national heritage site for its geological and archaeological interest, the Saint-Marcel Cave is one of the largest cavities in France with its 60 km of networks.
At 600 m. Following the traces of the fossil river, you will discover vast rooms and galleries finely carved by water works. Magnified by two sound and light shows, the cathedral room reveals its immense concretions and the sublime Gours waterfall, its series of more than a hundred pools with calcite in the water

Balcon des Gorges de Gournier

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Balcon des Gorges Gournier, overlooking the Ardèche, offers a spectacular view of the meanders of the river and the vertiginous limestone cliffs. This belvedere, accessible after a pleasant hike, reveals breathtaking panoramas, where wild nature reigns supreme. The contrast between the turquoise waters of the Ardèche below and the Mediterranean vegetation that covers the cliffs creates a striking spectacle.

On the route between Vallon Pont d'Arc and Saint Martin d'Ardèche there are some lookout points which give a view of the narrow gorge.
The Grand Belvédère offers a view in the direction of the Rhone Valley and thus, depending on the direction of travel, at the beginning or end of the panoramic road another, beautiful view far into the plane.
