What a beautiful hidden world! I was thrilled when I made my first hike here and came across the two stone blocks above the Causse Méjean. These two monoliths are commonly called the "Vase de Sèvre" and the "Vase de Chine," in reference to their striking shapes.

This improbable rock formation overlooks the Jonte valley. The origin of its name comes from the 19th century when a walker saw it from afar, the appearance of the rock inspired the shape of a petrified mushroom.
