The Spectacular Gorges of the Grands Causses East of Millau, the Tarn River and its tributaries have sculpted four dramatic canyons: the Gorges de la Dourbie, Gorges de la Jonte, Gorges du Trèvezel, and the legendary Gorges du Tarn. These breathtaking gorges lie at the heart of the Grands Causses Natural Park, offering some of the most spectacular hiking in France. Towering limestone cliffs rise up to 400 meters, framing the rugged beauty of the region’s dissected plateaus. Along the way, you’ll encounter natural wonders like the Grotte Rose of Dargilan and the surreal landscapes of the Causses—including the striking Chaos de Montpellier-le-Vieux and the Roques Altes. Your adventure begins and ends in the charming town of Millau or at the historic Château de Creissels. 50 km AROUND MILLAU, CENTER OF ACTIVITY HOLIDAYS IN FRANCE
