The Gorges du Giffre, at the Pont du Diable, represent a very aesthetic canyon, when the sun is in the axis, it gives extraordinary lights. These mythical gorges are steeped with a rather horizontal profile. The geological formation of the Gorges du Giffre is formed by a lock, called a glacial lock.
On the bottom of the valley, the folds of the limestone layers are oriented perpendicular to the axis of the valley. During the Quaternary era, these limestones offered greater resistance to the erosion of the glacier. He was only able to hollow out the layers occasionally.
The pots were dug afterwards, by repeated movements of water and pebbles
