Aigueze

Aiguèze is best known within Occitanie for its medieval centre perched above the Ardèche River near the downstream end of the Gorges de l’Ardèche. The village occupies a limestone spur on the boundary between the Gard and Ardèche departments, facing Saint-Martin-d’Ardèche across the river. Stone lanes, remnants of defensive walls and the church of Saint-Roch recall a settlement shaped by this strategic river corridor. Aiguèze belongs to Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, the national association recognising heritage villages. The nearby gorge is protected as a nature reserve and is well known for canoe trips on the Ardèche. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Aiguèze and the Ardèche Gorges.
