Mont Aigoual
2024-06-01 08:45 - 18:00 (Europe/Paris)
We are going to spend a day on Mount Aigoual, UNESCO World Heritage site and the highest point in the Gard.
This event is open to both walkers and non walkers. Walkers will tour the path called the “Balcon de l’Aigoual”, while non-walkers will enjoy the exhibition at the Mont Aigoual Observatory. Two groups, two different activities to suit everyone. And for those who just want to hang around and have a relaxing day up on the Mount, that’s possible too.
Fully booked.
