A 2-hour hike (medium level) to the cirque de Mourèze, a famous sea of strangely shaped rocks. The cirque of Mourèze offers a surprising natural setting. The site, formed of limestone rocks sculpted by erosion, appears as a ruinous landscape. Bizarre shapes that allow for all sorts of interpretations. This chaos of limestone rocks with gigantic shapes projects us into another universe, magical, timeless, even extraterrestrial! Discover the Salagou lake, with its red sand, surrounded by ancient volcanoes. A change of scenery is guaranteed. Swimming possible, take a swimming costume. Take sports shoes and a bottle of water.
