    Hiking

    The Romanesque church of Oppède-le-Vieux is remarkable in many respects. It is located at the top of the abandoned village of Oppède. Its roof is extremely heavy because it is made up of imposing stone slabs. Once inside, you will discover beautiful paintings in its various chapels. In addition, its acoustics are remarkable.

    The abandoned castle which is just a little higher, can no longer be visited because the risk of falling rocks is too great.

    Wandering through the ruins of this ancient village is quite extraordinary.

    Hiking

    This Mountain perched Church dating back to post-Roman times, has incredible frescoes, accessed via a small door at the rear behind the altar.

    Very beautiful old church, facing an incredible panorama of the plain and at the foot of the castle ruins
