Awesome... if you want to walk between ocher walls, you have to go here... the gorge is about 250 meters long and you stand between about 5 meter high ocher walls...

The Ochres of Mormoiron

Highlight • Gorge

Here you can comfortably admire a large area with exposed ochre rocks. 🥰
The gorge mentioned is located elsewhere and - as of June 2024 - has not yet been mapped.
There are many hiking trails in this beautiful area.
