"The Vauclusian fountains that form the Tourne river in Bourg-Saint-Andéol, a site regularly explored by experienced divers. This is rainwater that penetrates underground and forms a complex network of submerged galleries to flow into the valley at the foot of the cliff here" Impressive and beautifully located in an art park with numerous attractions all around.

Varied route including climbing over the rocks. Be careful, they can be slippery.

It consists of three basins surrounding a central pole on which the statue of Dona Vierna rests. In her right hand she holds the deed of donation and in her left an oak branch, the symbol of the forest that she gave to the city. This achievement in white Carrara marble is the work of the marble workers Bouvas, Baussan, who were inspired by a model by the sculptor Delorme. The decorations on the three sides evoke the fauna and flora of the Laoul forest, a representation of the sarcophagus of Saint-Andéol and the coat of arms of Bourg-Saint-Andéol. The following names are engraved on the base of the stack: E.Rambaud, Maire, P.Laurent and E. Croze: Adjoints, Baussan Fils Architect, Baussan and Bouvas: Sculptor 1888. On another part: Restoration 1995 JMSerre Maire.

Also as a round trip from Saint-Martin-d'Ardèche - Aiguèze - Laval-Saint-Roman - Orgnac-l'Aven - Labastide-de-Virac - Salavas - Pont d'Ardèche - back on the panorama route. Driven on a Saturday in mid-June with little traffic. Very nice, about 70 km.

To do absolutely by bike but outside the tourist period (early May / end of September).

After a nice hike in the Gorges you can quench your thirst in one of the many beer gardens at the gauge point.

A very nice scenic route with plenty of places to stop and enjoy the view of the Ardèche below.

A real must, however very busy during the summer. Bikers are extremely reckless, and you will need to be vigilant. Nevertheless, this road is a marvel, the surface of a high quality and each bump will reward you with a breathtaking view of the Gorges de l'Ardèche.
