LE COLORADO

This is a strange and unusual landscape which is worth a visit. Note - for morning visits especially one must reserve parking to guarantee entrance. On arrival you pay €8 for the car. You can then walk through the space, the longer walk took us 1.5 hours.

A big area to walk e.g. there is a good 4 km loop that is a little bit challenging on a hot day. When you get to the Belvedere’s, you actually get a good view. If you’re into red coloured sand cliffs and bits of shady walks this is for you. If you are travelling on foot like we did from the local village you do not pay any entrance fee. The fees are all if you are parking but entrance to the site itself is free..

We stopped off on a bit of a road trip to have an explore of this interesting diversion. It was surprisingly busy when we arrived at the car park. There was a small queue of cars even though it was a midweek lunchtime visit. The queue went quick though, and there was lots of space to park. The price was for one car parking garage space and was €8. This gave our family of four entrance. We took the short route around, which took us about an hour. It was easy walking, and after 15 minutes we got to the interesting yellow and orange hills and dunes. It was really quite interesting, with lots of space to take some pictures as it did not feel too busy once we got there. After wandering around and taking some snaps, we headed back to get some cold can drinks from the little drinks snack, which had some seating in the shade. All in all, we had a really nice time for a good price.

Nice place to visit, the colors of vegetals / minerals of the canyon are bluffing. The parking is really big and easy to enter in. Planning some refreshments is a good idea as the only place near the entrance offering drinks, food and restroom is quite expensive for the goods proposed and the big loop is quite long to make (and hot of course during summer time).

Such a gem in France. I recommende to visit this place in spring winter or autumn. It might be very hot during summer and there are no shade on the hiking/walking tracks. You can take a picnic and spend some time in the Park. There are tables and benches everywhere . A hat and sunscreen is à must. The whole visit is about 2hr.

Lovely place! Definitely worth visiting! A few more signs could be added as we were not always sure we were staying on path and going in right direction. I saw some people struggling with that too. The picnic benches at the car park were amazing! I felt like in American movie all the time!

A beautiful place to explore with 2 marked paths. It really feels as though you're in a desert landscape. Parking costs 5€ per car for the day. There are also a couple of places where you can buy a drink and a snack.

8€ for parking, leaflet provided. A little overcrowded on a Thursday afternoon. We did the easy trail of 2km. Can imagine it looks even more amazing when the sun is out!
