サン＝タンドレ＝ド＝ヴェジネスの峡谷・トップ14

path not very passable after 2km

Great vantage point over the Jonte Gorge. Both vultures and rock climbers can be observed from here. But don't lean too far out!

A great trail with beautiful views of the Gorge du Tarn and the occasional vulture nest in the rocks above. There are frequent detours to viewpoints. Towards Le Rozier, the trail descends gently. Easy to walk throughout, with no scrambling required – unlike the continuation of the Gorge de la Jonte.

The rock formation covers approximately 120 hectares. It was formed by corrosion of the dolomite rock of the Causse Noir. It was originally assumed that the rocks were a ruined city, and it was not until 1870 that a trench was cut through the rocks. The speleologist Edouard-Alfred Martel was the first to map the rocks in 1883-1884.

The rock formation is located in the western part of the department on the high plateau of the Causse Noir. To the north lie the rivers Tarn and Jonte, to the south lie the Dourbie gorges, and to the west lies the town of Millau.

Magnificent spot with its beautiful mountains ⛰ Be careful it climbs 🚴‍♀️

Magnificent view of the Jonte gorges with the Causse Noir on the other bank.

The Tarn is the river that flows at the bottom of the eponymous gorges to throw itself a few hundred kilometers further, into the Garonne. Ideal for cooling off during scorching summers, it is also an unparalleled place of rest and relaxation. From the beaches, have fun watching the few fierce explorers descending the Tarn in canoe kayaks.
