Causse du Larzac

A very famous place full of history : the Causse du Larzac !

It is a high karstic plateau that stretches from Millau to Lodève and is part of the Causses and Cévennes territory, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It is a wild place just a stone’s throw from the campsite, a territory of wide open spaces, ideal for hiking. It is also the symbol of agropastoralism, you will find typical caussenarde farms of the region. At the bend of a walk, you will certainly see cardabelles or carlines with acanthus leaves : these plants similar to artichokes which flower in summer or early autumn and have a magical power .

The inhabitants are the fervent defenders of traditional values and authentic which they knew how to represent and still perpetuate today. The art of good living and eating well holds a major place through the many producer markets that take place in July and August.

The Larzac : a land of protest that will mark you forever !

Cirque de Navacelles

One of the Great Sites of France and Occitania : the Circus of Navacelles!

This landscape shaped by nature is a major site near the 2 Vallées campsite, located about 50 minutes away by car. It was formed gradually by the meanders of the river la Vis between the Gorges des Causses du Larzac and the Blandas. You will observe at length this exceptional panorama and vertiginous

Le Cirque de Navacelles : one of the largest canyon in Europe for a breathtaking view in the Hérault!

Mont Aigoual

Mount Aigoual : a summit and a weather observatory at the same time!

At an altitude of 1,567 m, it is the highest point in the Gard department and is 40 km from Nant. Ideally located for outdoor activities in the forest with dedicated trails accessible to the whole family. It is also a mountain weather station which allows an extraordinary view. The transhumance of the sheep that move from the plain to the mountains takes place every year in mid-June. This festival is the occasion to discover the know-how of the shepherds (shearing, work of the herd dogs, etc…).

In good weather and if you have a lynx’s eye, you can even see the Mediterranean sea !

Aubrac Plateau

L’Aubrac : a natural environment preserved in its purest form.

It is a high plateau volcanic and granitic which extends over 3 departments : Aveyron, Cantal and Lozère. To take a breath of fresh air, you will be able to practice different activities in this wild place : hiking in Aveyron, cycling or horse riding, but also take part in the transhumance of the cows which takes place every year on the last weekend of May.

The source of the Durzon

The source of the Durzon : a haven of peace just 7 km from the 2 Vallées campsite !

The Durzon is a watercourse which runs alongside the campsite and has its source only a few kilometres away. It’s a wonderful hike which is possible from the campsite to make you discover a unique place, far from everything, where only the sound of the water will disturb you. To get there, we recommend you to go through the famous descent of the “canalettes” or “canoles” : these deep faults in the rock are to take your breath away !

A walk accessible to all and very pleasant in summer because it is very shady.

Le Rougier de Camarès : a colourful territory!

Around sixty kilometres from Nant, the Camarès region has a unique feature : a red earth. Hold on, this is a geological natural phenomenon that was created nearly 300 million years ago. This setting may remind you of some similarities with the American Colorado, so once again you can escape completely at the turn of a walk.
