Heritage listed site of Gorges du Gardon.

Designated World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO

In the limestone plateau of Languedoc, the Gardon has dug its gorges for thirty kilometers undulating through the Mediterranean landscape of Uzège. Giving its name to the Gard department, the river is born in the Cevennes valleys. It then crosses the plain of Gardonnenque, the karst massif north of Nîmes and ends its race by throwing itself into the Rhone.
