Gard : Discover
Here's an authentic, lively region, bursting with sunshine, culture, heritage and nature. It's the South, the garrigue and cicadas, the Camargue with its flamingos, horses, toros and ferias. It's also the mountains, with Mont Aigoual culminating at 1,567 m, offering hiking in all four seasons on more than 28 nature trails. From the Cévennes in the north-west, through the Costières in the south-east, the Rhone plain, the coastal plain and the Petite Camargue, the Gard is a tourist destination with emblematic sites such as the Pont du Gard and the Cirque de Navacelles. With 250 days of sunshine a year, its historic towns and remarkable villages, its Grands Sites de France, its gourmet delights, its traditional festivals, its 9,000 km of signposted itineraries and its varied landscapes, the Gard is an exciting destination!
