Ruins of Château de Carry

Highlight • Castle

The Château de Carry is a medieval castle of which only ruins remain today. It is located in the town of Grazac and became a historical monument in 1985. It is on private property, so access to it is prohibited to the public. However, as you approach the gates, you can admire the silhouettes of the ramparts and dungeons still standing in the distance.

Himalayan footbridge at Gorges du Lignon

Highlight • Gorge

It is the longest Himalayan footbridge in France, with 268 meters of suspension bridge 78 meters high, above the Lignon.

This work was thought from the outset as an eco-responsible site whose vocation is to make people discover the gorges with a minimum impact on the biodiversity of this protected natural space.

Nice walk around the Lignon gorges, a bit long but easy

Walk after the footbridge. Without any interest too many roads not enough small paths and forests.

The footbridge is superb. It's safe to say you don't need a head for heights. The path to the castle ruins is covered in vegetation. Next time, definitely wear pants and a clipper. Lots of brambles.
