What makes Excursion Gorges du Tarn and Causses in the morning a unique experience ?
We leave Mende to reach the Causse de Sauveterre. We will pass through Sainte Enimie, a medieval village among the most beautiful villages in France, before joining the Causse Méjean, after crossing the Tarn.
A dizzying descent from the Causse Méjean towards the Gorges du Tarn brings us to the small village of La Malène, where we will embark on a one-hour boat ride with a boatman. You will learn everything about the Tarn and its inhabitants, passing through some of the most beautiful places in the gorges.
