Besse washhouse

Highlight • Structure

A beautiful city, where it is easy to lose the rhythm by lingering too long.

Standing south of the historic center, the belfry of Besse is the only memory of the three old fortified gates of Besse.

Adorned with battlements and topped with a clock, the gate dates from the Hundred Years War.

The gate is an essential historic passage on the long-distance hiking trails that criss-cross the region.

Col de la croix Saint-Robert

Highlight • Mountain Pass

This pass is long when you come from Besse, but it is in the last five kilometers that it takes on its true grandeur, especially if there is wind... The landscapes are never monotonous and damn, that the mountain is beautiful!
