The plateau (Causse) of the Larzac is a region of magnificent natural sites. The plateau is about 1000 km2 with an altitude from 600 to 900 m, influenced by a Mediterranean and mountainous climate.

It's the world of calcareous soil, cut by deep valleys and canyons, with strange landscapes formed by the erosion of wind and rain. This stone dissolution has created caves, natural wells, subterranean rivers, ruinous rocks, but also 'dolines' or 'lavognes', real excavations of good cultivation land or containing water and used as drinking reservoirs for flocks.

It's an area of magnificent retirement, unique in France, for the happiness of the eyes : a paradise for hikers and a symbol for ecologists.

Despite of a difficult climate, different ethnic groups have settled, suffering during the centuries the unavoidable invasions and destructive wars or religions. Roman roads, menhirs and dolmens, cities built by the templar knights are the witnesses of this glorious past.
