ル・パンの洞窟・トップ4

On a wooded hill you discover this castle in gray stone. It cannot be visited, but know that it has four corner towers which protect four curtain walls and a square tower.

Saint Siffret is a magnificent medieval village located on the foothills of a limestone plateau a few kilometers from Uzès. Its cobbled streets, its Roman-Byzantine church, its stone houses and its 2 castles are worth the detour and a short visit.

The history of the Château de la Fare begins in the 12th century with the construction of a watchtower, at the foot of which a fortified house was built in the 13th century, blending into the village walls. The current castle dates from the 16th century and was rebuilt after a fatal fire.

The Castellas is not to be confused with the Château de Saint-Victor-Lacoste, which is a hotel found in the center of the village of the same name. Here are the ruins of an ancient castle strategically located on a rocky pyramid. From up there you overlook the Tave plain and the Rhône valley. The ruins date from the 11th to the 12th century. From the way the fortress was designed, it seems impregnable. You can observe it along this road which slaloms between the large limestone rocks.

Nice little village. There is a tap, but do not fill your water bottle at the fountain which is not drinkable.

At the bottom of the descent arriving at St Victor, the road winds between the rocks....

a small but picturesque village with many little streets and alleys
