Hiking in Gorges du Tarn

Welcome to an environment where one of Europe's most dramatic landscapes opens up before you! The Tarn gorge is one of France's most iconic natural areas, as mythical as the Riviera or the Alps, and will seduce you with its raw beauty.

On this hike you will experience spectacular places like Tarn and Jonte Gorges, Causse Méjan, Sauveterre and Causse Noir. The mighty limestone plateaus – known as "causses" – plunge down into narrow valleys where rivers cut gorges with walls of 400–500 meters. The golden ochre colors against the lush greenery create a landscape that takes the hiker's breath away.

In addition to breathtaking nature, you get to meet charming traditional villages and enjoy the mild Mediterranean climate. The entire Causse Méjan is crossed during the hike, and a canoe trip lets you discover the gorges from a completely new perspective. Here awaits an unforgettable hiking experience, filled with drama, beauty and adventure!
