I have watched this area grow ever since my nephew moved there over 20 years ago. He used to boast that he knew the family who started it. We used to be able to buy the wines at the market in Le Vigan very cheaply, sadly no longer. The number of caves is vast and you could spend a whole... More

It was quite a walk, we took the long way and it lasted about 2 hours but the view was worth every bit. Just remember to take some food to eat on the top. We didn't and we were starved :) The walk down to our car was another 90 minutes :)

We tried to get there by public transport but found it impossible because there is only 2 hours between the first bus there and the last to leave!

Lovely shaped mountain - nice to walk around, good area for picknicking. Nice also to visit the pretty villages nearby.

Nothing stunning but a lovely area, fine walks - lovely woods and the occasional glider to grace the scene
