    Hiking

    Saint-Vincent rock is an imposing volcanic rock that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding forests and valleys.

    It is a natural curiosity that dates back millions of years, when lava gushed out of a crack. Later, the sea receded and a tectonic movement lifted the lava, creating the impressive rock that stands today.

    You can explore the ruins of an ancient castle that once crowned the rock and admire a statue of the Virgin and Child, called “Notre Dame de là-haut”, installed in 2012.

    The Rocher Saint-Vincent is an imposing volcanic rock that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding forests and valleys. The Rocher Saint-Vincent is a natural curiosity that dates back millions of years, when lava gushed out of a crack and formed a green horn. Later, the sea receded and a tectonic movement lifted the horn, creating the impressive rock that stands today. You can explore the ruins of an ancient castle that crowned the rock, and admire a statue of the Virgin and Child, called "Notre-Dame de là-haut", which was installed in 2012.

    Saint-Vincent Rock is an imposing volcanic rock that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding forests and valleys. It is a natural wonder that dates back millions of years, when lava erupted from a fissure. Later, the sea receded, and tectonic movement lifted the lava, creating the impressive rock that stands today.
