古代の歴史の断片がここにあなたを待っています

It's a dream to ride through here. I recommend getting there early and starting at the Col du Fanget, so it's a constant descent. Breathtakingly beautiful!

The canyon is something exceptional

Obligatory photo when you arrive at this waterfall.

This stone was engraved in the 6th century to recall the passage of Dadanus, a powerful man. This Christian, correspondent of Saint-Augustin and prefect of Gaul, had come to retire to Saint-Geniez to found a “City of God” in the valley.

Near the Serre-Ponçon dam, you can enjoy this picturesque and dizzying road with almost no traffic to overlook the Blanche River. Be careful on the road though, it is not uncommon for small landslides to occur and stones to be found in the middle of it.

A wild and picturesque place and very rich in environmental terms: exceptional plants (orange lilies, goat's beard, coal, yew) colonize its inaccessible walls. The waterfall offers us, through its different lighting, and throughout the seasons, a very beautiful and always renewed spectacle. It is also an archaeological site since in 1953 workers discovered over the waterfall, under a rock, about forty ancient weapons dating from the 4th century BC. They are currently stored in the Digne les Bains museum.

In the hollow of a canyon that splits the rock, the road opens up spectacularly in the heart of the mountain along a bubbling river. Gorgeous !
