Chapel built in the 12th century on the ruins of a Gallo-Roman temple. A spring gushes forth from the site. Near the chapel, a cave once occupied by hermits provides a cool spot. The entire site is listed. A major pilgrimage site until the mid-20th century, dedicated to Saint-Vérédème, it was abandoned and then overgrown. An initiative was launched to restore the site and showcase its magical location and beauty.

The grotte de l'ermitage (hermitage cave) dates from the Neolithic period, and the 12th-century Romanesque chapel of Notre-Dame de Laval. Occupied over the course of time by different peoples and associated with various mysteries, rites and beliefs. The site witnessed the first beginnings of Christianity, with Saint Veredemus occupying the site in the 7th century. The Hermitage was born. In the 12th century, Christianity made its mark on the site, consecrating it and building the chapel. Hermits occupied the site successively and alternately, and hid there during the French Revolution. In the twentieth century, still deeply imbued with religion, processions were very popular to ward off the misfortunes of war and disease, or to ask for rain and good harvests; more recently, during and after the difficult times of the Second World War. With the disappearance of processions, the site fell into disuse, more or less ruining it and its surroundings. Renovation work, however, saved the site. Nowadays, although the religious aspect has faded, the solemnity and harmony remain, generating a confidential but quality tourism that is totally respectful of the site.

The most popular spot for swimmers is in the village of Collias, on the left bank of the Gardon. You'll love the pebble beaches and cool waters of the Collias lake. This beach is not supervised. What could be better than swimming and cooling off in a natural setting? The Gardon flows through our region, offering superb natural swimming spots like this one! It's easy to get to, and a favorite bathing spot for tourists and locals alike. That's why it's one of the most popular bathing spots in summer. Be careful, however, not to go to the canoe departure point and to avoid the forbidden access points, which are indicated by signs.

Rarely straying far from the river, the animal leaves behind signs of its presence visible from the beaches of the Gardon. Around him, a rich and exceptional biodiversity gravitates to form a complex ecosystem. Throughout your visit, the museographic space will help you discover and understand the environment of the Gardon gorges.

But beware, there are eyes watching you: all around you, furry and feathered guests welcome you to their territory. You're their guest - show them some respect and maybe they'll pay you a visit. So, when you're out and about, keep your eyes peeled for a pair of Bonelli's eagles or Egyptian vultures. At dusk, you're likely to observe the dance of one of the ten species of bat. When swimming, keep your eyes peeled for beavers. A whole little world has come together, just for you. An ideal site for nature sports With so much beauty on offer, you'll be tempted to glide down the Gardon's crystal-clear waters in a canoe, dive in for a swim, hike or climb its cliffs. The Gardon gorges are the ideal spot for respectful outdoor sports. From caving to horse-riding, there's something for everyone. For access to the gorges, nothing beats Collias If you're looking to laze by the river, picnic with the family or take a dip in the Gardon, we recommend Collias.

L'Atelier des Artistes is first and foremost a cuisine that speaks of the South - a little of Provence and a lot of Italy. Guillaume, of Italian origin, wanted to honor this heritage, while blending in the best of the Gard region. All L'Atelier des Artistes dishes are made with fresh produce sourced from local and Italian artisans. Our priority is to offer family-style, southern-style cuisine, prepared from start to finish. Perché la gola fa buon mestiere! *Because gourmandise makes a good trade!

Curious passers-by and food lovers will appreciate the beautiful setting of this 17th-century building, where elegant and creative dishes showcase the local terroir with simple yet delicate cuisine. "Our speciality is to work with seasonal products to provide you with a moment of pure pleasure and new discoveries."

In Domazan, known for the quality of its vineyards, come and taste the cuisine of Bistrot de l'Hoste: local, fresh and entirely homemade, with a hint of Italy. About us In the Gard region of France, there's a small area that looks a lot like Tuscany, with vineyards as far as the eye can see. Welcome to Domazan, a charming village of 930 inhabitants nestled between Nîmes (30 km) and Avignon (20 km). The village boasts no fewer than 21 private wineries! The village boasts the prestigious Côtes du Rhône label and the Signargues AOC. And to top it all off, the Pont du Gard, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is just around the corner. Le Bistrot de l'Hoste is above all a family affair. Originally from Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, Pascale joined Domazan three decades ago. Her passion for cooking was passed on to her at an early age by her Italian grandmothers, who taught her the secrets of authentic flavors and traditional dishes, as well as by a whole family of restaurateurs and enthusiasts for excellent gastronomy. The name Bistrot de l'Hoste is in fact a tender tribute to her mother, who ran a guest house. In other words, sharing is an integral part of Pascale's DNA. Today, the café-restaurant has become a veritable meeting place for the villagers. Winegrowers gather here at dawn to share a coffee, while the counter gradually fills up with construction workers, old-timers and travelers passing through. Here, people chat, laugh, gossip and, above all, enjoy good food and good times together. Pascale has passed on her passion to her son Thomas, who grew up in Domazan. After a rich experience abroad and in prestigious French addresses, he returns to his roots with his partner Anastasia, who warmly welcomes you. Behind the counter, he turns the bistro into a living space where he creates original cocktails: the refreshing "Italicus sour" - with a hint of Italian bergamot -, the exotic "Caïpirinha", the sparkling house creation, his "Cocktail bistrot" - basil, yellow lemon juice, house raspberry coulis, Vodka, Perrier - or the most gourmand, the "Expresso Martini" - Vodka, Kahlua, coffee liqueur, Baileys, coffee-. Behind the piano, he delights the taste buds. Like the ambience, the cuisine is family-style, generous and entirely homemade, featuring fresh seasonal vegetables. Undeniably Italian-influenced, healthy and tasty. The daily specials change daily, while the menu is renewed every month. Among the specialties, we recommend the semi-cooked tuna in virgin sauce, with tomatoes and local olive oil, accompanied by snow peas, peas and carrots. You can also try the tender, flavorful onglet de boeuf, or the genuine Caesar salad prepared according to the rules of the art, with home-made breaded chicken that will delight fans of authentic recipes. Mère Maury's ravioles from Romans, stuffed with summer white truffles or basil, are a pure delight. Gourmets won't be outdone by the desserts: strawberries in elegant pavlova or simply with homemade whipped cream, artisanal Ardèche ice creams... The bistro's specialty: lavender ice cream, garnished with pine nuts and lavender honey, with a light whipped cream (no need to tell you it's homemade, right?). The bistro has not one, but two shaded terraces! The first, in front of the bistro, is typically Provençal, with its pretty fountain shaded by plane trees. Facing the town hall, you can feel the soul of the village as you listen to the gentle murmur of the water... La dolce vita is just around the corner. The second is on the charming patio. Here, you can enjoy a quiet glass of wine, or savour a meal while soaking up the Italian atmosphere radiating from the ochre walls. The completely renovated interior features superb moldings, in-house lighting and a unique creation: a wall of 3,000 corks by Thomas, which sits behind the bar. The family has preserved and rejuvenated the 200-year-old counter, recalling the charm of the bistros of yesteryear. The little extra: concert evenings once a month. If you're also a fan of karaoke and like to sing along, there's a special evening for you once a month. Every first Sunday of the month, a delicious brunch is served from 11am to 4pm. An address you won't soon forget, as much for the quality of its food as for the generosity of its welcome.
