Old bridge over the Ibie

Highlight • River

This old bridge allows you to span the Ibie. Be discreet when you arrive and you may have the opportunity to observe the many toads and frogs that you will hear as you approach the site.

Aven de la Plaine des Gras

Highlight • Cave

great short tour for February. Always in the sun when it is at an angle. The way back on the road is nothing from March, because it is too crowded.

View of the Pont d'Arc

Highlight • Viewpoint

From here you have a view of the Pont d'Arc, a natural arch, 54 meters high. This passage over the Ardèche was formed more than 120,000 years ago by karst erosion.

June 1, 2023,Von der Ibie zum Pont d‘ Arc
Very nice tour of the - unfortunately already dried up at this time of year - Ibie over the mountain directly to the Pont d'Arc. At the top a really great view of the entire circular mountain and in the middle the landmark of the Ardeche.

Modified Tour 23 from the book "France's Wild South, Ardèche" by Uli Frings. Lonely hike to a very touristy place. Stop at the Auberge du Pont d'Arc. Very tasty (and cheap) lunch menus (Monday to Friday).

It's not possible to do without hiking, so I set off early from the holiday home and over the hill to the Pont d'Arc. After a swim, the return trip along the road, including the tunnel, reminded me a lot of the Amalfi Coast. Temperatures were 35°C. I was completely exhausted.
