Bouvante

Bouvante straddles the upper valley of the Lyonne in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, a setting that has shaped a dispersed mountain commune of woodland, pasture and small hamlets on the western Vercors. It belongs to the Vercors Regional Natural Park, where limestone plateaus and deeply cut valleys give this part of Drôme a distinctly upland character. The Forêt de Lente forms part of the commune’s high country, reflecting the enduring importance of forestry in these mountains. The wider Vercors is also closely associated with the French Resistance during the Second World War. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across the Vercors and Drôme.
