20의 생 앙드레 드 산고니스가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Beautiful shaded spot with an impressive plane tree!

Mourèze is a small, picturesque village in the Hérault department of Occitanie. Nestled at the edge of a steep amphitheater of rock pillars, the village features narrow stone streets, a Gothic church, and the ruins of a small castle perched on a rocky spur. You will find a couple of restaurant, a shop selling local food produce and doubling as a tapas bar as well as a creperie (pancake) also serving sandwiches and drinks. Mourèze makes a perfect midpoint for a circular walk from Liausson: it blends dramatic geology from the Cirque de Moureze, sweeping lake views on the Lac du Salagou, and a peaceful village ambience, with several services.

Mourèze is a pretty little village

A beautiful view to start the hike at the Belvédère de Mourèze. You can see the charming village on one side, and the Cirque on the other!

Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert is a magnificent, very touristy village but it is also a perfect starting point for numerous trail routes in the Hérault gorges, particularly in the off-season when there are fewer people on the trail. trails.

This magnificent bridge allows you to admire: the entrance to the Hérault gorges; the Devil's Bridge, a medieval structure with two main arches (plus two secondary ones) which spans the Hérault at the level of the Gouffre Noir since the 11th century; the Saint-Jean-de-Fos bridge, which does not have the aura of the Devil's Bridge but which is still found in many photos and remains a very pretty bridge with a single arch; and an aqueduct in the background.

Bridge from which you can admire the river and the lake

It's definitely worth making the short detour to the belvedere which offers a magnificent view of Mourèze and the rock formations of the cirque.
