A short ride, but a bath in Ardèche history! We'll start with a tour of the small villages that only the Ardèche can offer. The day continues with a tour of geological formations , ending with the first illustrious inhabitants of the Chauvet cave. A marvel not to be missed!
Another fine afternoon's driving to discover the heights of the Ardèche. We'll stop for an aperitif in Largentière and then take possession of our rooms.

Day 3: More curves and bends

Lunch break between two sessions of motorcycle riding in the heart of the Ardèche

With our dreams full of rock drawings, we'll take to the road again for the return journey through the east of the department, sailing from the heights towards the Rhône to enjoy a treat in Privas and the end of the day in Crussol. We'll have to watch out for the train timetable on the way back, though, as we're so keen to linger at the foot of these magical ruins, gazing out over the Drôme and the cliffs of the Vercors... Who knows, next time.
