ロシュグードのおすすめツーリングルート

Despite its current state, which is essentially in ruins, the castle (or more accurately, Castrum) of Allègre remains impressive and bears witness to nearly 10 centuries of history. It features towers and stately homes, a double rampart, a chapel, and a village. Located at an altitude of 275 meters, overlooking the middle valley of the Cèze, the entire site covers one and a half hectares and offers a sublime panorama of Mont Bouquet and the entire Cévennes (orientation table). Very close to the D37, the tour is best done on foot after leaving your bike in the parking lot.

A magnificent fortified medieval village built on a steep hill overlooking the Cèze and topped by a fortified castle, Rochegude (whose origin "Ròca-aguda" means fortress of the pointed rock) is a "stone labyrinth" which deserves a little exploration on foot through its alleys and cobblestone streets.

Nice quiet road, the climb remains fairly regular, without a big gradient.

Be careful, summer days are hot

I should have saved myself the detour, then I would have made it to the restaurant.

The only thing I really liked was the campsite.

Small road with a whole section of rocky landscapes.

The Via Ardeche railway cycle path is a nice idea in itself, but unfortunately, the perfect surface (asphalt) is only present in the tunnel sections. The rest is rough concrete, gravel, and even worse.
