The Gard: between the Mediterranean and the Cévennes

The Gard brings together several southern landscapes in a relatively compact area. It stretches from the Mediterranean edge and the Camargue to the Cévennes, while the Rhône Valley forms one of its major lines of travel.

To the north, around Barjac, the department approaches the Ardèche Gorges. To the west, the Cévennes foothills bring a rougher landscape of stone, garrigue and narrow valleys.

The mark of Roman civilization

Roman heritage is one of the Gard’s strongest features. Nîmes has preserved its amphitheatre and the Maison Carrée, while the Pont du Gard, a Roman aqueduct, still spans the Gardon River with remarkable presence. Nearby, Castillon-du-Gard keeps the scale and texture of a medieval village.

A wine-growing terroir

The sunny, dry climate of the Gard has long supported vine growing. Around Laudun, Chusclan and Lirac, the Rhône-side vineyards have recognized appellations, while Tavel is known for one of France’s landmark rosé wines.

Towns and villages of character

Uzès is one of the key towns of the Gard side of Provence, with historic streets around its ducal castle and the Place aux Herbes.

The Gard is also home to numerous picturesque and historic villages, including:

Exploring the Gard means moving between Roman monuments, markets, rivers, wine villages and landscapes shaped by both Mediterranean and Cévennes influences.
