Chez Gervais is a historic establishment in the Loue valley. Its location by the river, in a green and bucolic setting, creates a unique atmosphere. Fly fishermen complete the picture when you are seated on the terrace. If you pass by, don't hesitate and come and sit at Edgar Faure's favorite table.

This is a dream place - and from the looks of it a great restaurant too. Unfortunately I didn't get a place anymore, it was very busy. But eating a few meters away from la Loue and in the sunshine would have been a dream.

Beautiful location and good food or dessert as a stopover very successful.

This path winds between sinkholes and lapiaz. Quite well rolling and without much difficulty. A beautiful illustration of the particularities of the karstic reliefs, right in the middle of a forest populated by beautiful trees.
