The Cévennes: nature and heritage

The Cévennes form a mountainous region located at the southeastern edge of the Massif Central, extending mainly to the northwest of the Gard and the southwest of the Ardèche. This area is renowned for its spectacular landscapes, unique biodiversity, and preserved traditions.

A strong mediterranean influence

The Cévennes enjoy a Mediterranean climate similar to that of the Haute Provence. Summers are hot, autumns sometimes bring torrential rains known as Cévenol episodes, and winters are harsh, particularly at higher altitudes. The bright limestone, characteristic of the region, shapes the landscape and is used in the traditional architecture of the local dwellings.

The Cévennes national Park: a protected natural heritage

Established in 1970, the Cévennes National Park is a sanctuary for biodiversity, recognized as a Biosphere Reserve and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It offers numerous activities for nature lovers: hiking, wildlife and flora observation, and the discovery of a unique agricultural and cultural heritage. The park’s ecological richness attracts many visitors looking to recharge in a preserved environment.

Towns and villages of the Cévennes

Alès, often considered the "gateway to the Cévennes," is the main city of the region. However, other locations also deserve a visit:

Nature, traditions, and terroir

The Cévennes are also a land of traditions. Pastoralism, chestnut cultivation, and local crafts reflect a rich heritage. Local markets and traditional festivals are the perfect opportunity to discover Cévennes terroir, its products, and its know-how.

The Cévennes captivate with their diversity: exceptional natural heritage, authentic villages, and a climate conducive to relaxation and exploration. Whether you are a lover of nature, history, or gastronomy, this region will enchant you.
