Navacelles Cirque : unique and sublime
The Navacelles cirque, a ‘Grand Site’ of France classified Natura 2000, offers a sublime and unique landscape.
The canyon, carved by the river Vis, is truly impressive with its 300 metre deep gorges carved out of the limestone plateaus of the ‘Blandas’ (Gard) and the Larzac (Hérault).
Below, the river flows in a cascade near the village of Navacelles, which was built beside a meander that dried up some 6000 years ago.
The Navacelles cirque, is located in the area of the Causses and the Cevennes, classified as a Human World Heritage site by Unesco.
