Under the title "France's Wild South," an episode of the British television series "National Parks – Protected Natural Wonders" on 3sat presents the Cévennes mountains. The accompanying text on the website states: "Lush green mountains, barren plateaus, and deep gorges characterize this landscape, which, unlike France's coasts, has not yet been discovered by mass tourism. It also boasts some of the country's most spectacular river landscapes." The compelling documentary, available in German, can be viewed in the media library at the following link: https://www.3sat.de/dokumentation/nationalparks-geschuetzte-naturwunder/nationalparks-geschuetzte-naturwunder-cevennen-frankreichs-wilder-sueden-102.html

An exceptional site due to its location. One thing intrigues me: how did the ancients build with stone at such heights? Even on the backs of mules, the task of climbing the 500m drop from the Tarn is gigantic. Other questions: how did they live there? Certainly no prayers.

Far away from all civilization, this hermitage was built on rocks.

This small sacred monument, too, is a symbol of remembrance of the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. However, its design is very unique and unlike the usual crosses that often crown mountain peaks. At the end of the triangular base plate, a small wall appears to have been built, its sides terminating in the shape of a stepped gable. In the center is a V-shaped cutout, the ends of which extend significantly beyond the height of the small wall. From this V emerges the longitudinal beam of the cross, which, however, has two crossbeams. This double crossbeam, as well as the lack of a corpus, is typical of the so-called "Lorraine Cross."

Lovely running climb, at the beginning through the forest it is nice to cycle. After that the road surface becomes a bit worse. Nice running climb.

This mountain is also climbed in the book 'De Renner' by Tim Krabbé.
