The Tchier de Borée is a contemporary artwork situated in the heart of the volcanic landscapes of the Boutières region. Created in 2008 by Fabienne Versé and Serge Boyer, this megalithic installation comprises 70 standing stones arranged in a circle 80 meters in diameter. Each stone bears a symbol or message: runes, astrological signs, natural elements (air, water, fire, earth), winds, mythology… The word “Tchier” (from the local dialect) means “pile of stones”: a tribute to stone, time, and the memory of the land. https://www.montagnedardeche.com/patrimoine-culturel/tchier-de-boree-2634/

Lots of hikers. Be polite and share the trail. The descent with the small steps is a treat.

One of the most beautiful viewpoints in the region with the village of Borée, at the foot of the Sucs and Mont Mézenc

A pass at an altitude of over 1500 m. It is the highest in Ardèche.

Mont Gerbier-de-Jonc is one of the highest peaks of the Monts d'Ardèche in the south-eastern Massif Central. The mountain itself is a striking, extinct volcanic cone with a good view over the Massif Central. The ascent and descent require some fitness and good footwear. There are a few short climbing rocks that cannot be avoided. But the view is worth it.

Very nicely located grotto, you can also go swimming below.

Contemporary work by Fabienne and Serge Boÿer: Glypheins sculptors. 70 stones engraved with symbols, myths of the country of Boutières, allegory. The cultural history of the high country of Boutières is told through nine themes: memory, reflection and philosophers, secrets and desires, travelers and pilgrims, astronomers and cartographers.

Stroll around the lake on Sunday July 23, 2023. Very pleasant because it is largely shaded. Provide credit card (no possibility to pay in cash) for paid parking from 01/06 to 30/09, package 3€. Lots of people on the beaches and around.
