Snapshots from Tournon sur Rhône

On our way to Ardèche plateau, we stopped in Tournon sur Rhône, an old city with very nice monuments along Rhône river which is here the limit between Drôme and Ardèche departments.
After an short walk in the streets, we spent a few hours visiting an interesting art exhibition in the local museum.

Ardèche landscape with Gerbier de Jonc mountain

Ardèche landscape with Gerbier de Jonc mountain

 

Gerbier de Jonc if probably the most famous mountain in Ardèche and this place is the second most visited by tourists in the department. I think this celebrity comes from its special shape and from the sources of Loire river which are just near. Half a million people pay to climb this little mountain every year...

I've posted yesterday my last batch of images from Ardèche on my website, the new and dedicated gallery is here.

Loire river is the longest river in France. It runs during more than 1 000 kilometers from Ardèche department to Atlantic ocean.
Here, near the source it's still a little and wild river running through fields and forest.

Note : For more images and informations about Loire country in center France, you can have a look at Amboise Daily Photo which is one of the many blogs i check every day.

I'm just back from a short holidays in Ardèche department which is a very beautiful place to visit in France if you love nature.
It was a family trip and i didn't want an heavy and annoying equipment so i just took an old Nikon D200, one short zoom lens and a light tripod.
We mostly stayed in the upper part of the department which is the wildest and the most tranquil. Lower part near Rhône valley is really more touristic.

A first batch of images about villages has been published yesterday on my website. A second one about natural places will be posted soon.
