In the Camargue region... From the Rhone to the Mediterranean

Due to the omnipresence of water, which characterizes our territory, and with more than 160 kilometres of inland waterways, the Gard department is one of the main destinations for river tourism.
Every year, the Rhône, Petit Rhône (Little Rhone) and Rhône Canal in Sète attract many tourists seduced by the charm of the "péniches" (river barges), cruise and other similar boats.

Along the water, typical landscapes from the Rhone Valley or the Camargue region reveal themselves and the many stopovers in picturesque villages are as many unforgettable moments.
Today, with the development of river tourism, the Gard is reviving a secular tradition when the waterways played a fundamental part in economic and demographic growth.

Take the time to imagine the clamours that resounded in the Middle Ages during the Madeleine fairs in Beaucaire and to listen to the verve of the wine merchants who embarked in Saint Gilles.
And mostly, do not hesitate to leave the waterway to go and admire the natural and patrimonial wonders which are just a stone?s thrown away, such as those you can discover at the heart of the Gard Camargue around Franquevaux and Gallician.
