You’ll walk along the banks of the peaceful Viaur and the winding Lézert before reaching the plateau for a magnificent view of the village of Mirandol and its surroundings.
Good to know:
Located in the town of Mirandol-Bourgnounac, the hamlet of La Rivière was the birthplace of two remarkable women: the mother of Jean Boudou, author of the *Contes du Viaur* (Albanie Balssa), and his aunt Doria, both daughters of Jean-Baptiste Balssa, uncle of Honoré de Balzac.
Viewpoint on the plateau.
In April, you can see daffodils.
