In this territory of scrubland, a small tributary of the river Herault, the Lamalou, has carved out a narrow canyon bordered in places by high cliffs. In the bed of this temporary watercourse, central point of your hike, are hidden wonders of which the highlight is a superb natural arch. Although the river is dry for most of the year, it can become a real torrent at the first rains.

Discover a wild site by descending from the Cevennes, in the Séranne massif. Close to the Pic Saint-Loup, the Hérault river has sculpted wild gorges, both green and mineral. They are made up of a mosaic of grandiose and preserved landscapes, conducive to wonderment and resourcing. Located in the heart of the classified and labeled Grand Site de France Gorges de l'Hérault, renewed in 2018, and two Natura 2000 sites, the Ravin des Arcs is recognized for its high environmental and landscape value. It is home to several endangered species.
