Department of Herault

by GUYON - last update: May 11, 2003

Between Mountains and Sea

Herault Gorges
The Pyrénées on the South, the Cevennes (mountains) onthe North West, the Provence on the North East and the Sea (Mediterranea) on the East, the "département" of Hérault is a perfect location for the persons who like to go swimming in the sea, the rivers, the lakes, the pools, sunbathing, walk in the mountains, visit ancient typical villages, watch the wild nature, go in natural caves, see monuments and ancient churchs, visit museums, eat typical food, taste wine, and spend few money.

The other tourists can go elsewhere.

Less known than Provence and the Riviera, the Hérault has a lot of attractions to offer to the visitors for a reasonable budget.

 P.S. I saw Bouzigue in 1992 and would go back in a heartbeat.Sitting on the edge of the etang with a plate of oysters and a bottle of white wine is divine.

 Carol and I are still trying to settle on a region of France to visit for 7-10 days next year. The area you describe around St. Guilhen de Desert sounds like a real possibility. Thanks for the tour...Tom
