Car trip through the mountains of Green Ardèche
Description
"My God, the mountains are so beautiful!" - as Jean Ferrat, the famous French singer, once sang. Here's a chance to see why.
At the exit of Annonay, in the direction of Le Puy, follow the Cance valley. Formerly, this river fed in energy numerous textile workshops.The activity disappeared and the river is now very frequented by fishermen.
Arrived at the Baraques pass, where the river takes its source, take the direction of Lalouvesc. Few kilometers after the crossroads, take the direction of Saint-Pierre-sur-Doux.
The road is narrow, sinuous, but she will enable you to discover magnificent landscapes along the valley of Doux.
It will lead you up to La Chapelle sous Rochepaule, then Lalouvesc, by crossing charming undergrowth.
