Cascade de Cerveyrieu

Cascade de Cerveyrieu is a waterfall that drops 60 meters in a single vertical fall, creating a dramatic water display along the Séran river in the Rhône-Alpes region. The water plunges over limestone layers and forms various patterns and natural basins at the base.

The waterfall was carved over thousands of years as water gradually cut through limestone formations and shaped the geological features of the Valromey valley. This slow erosion created the landscape visitors encounter today.

The waterfall draws visitors throughout the year who gather at viewing areas to observe how water flow changes with the seasons. People come here to experience how nature transforms the landscape at different times of year.

The waterfall can be reached via the D31 road between Champagne and Don with a designated parking area nearby. A picnic area is available for visitors who want to spend time at the location.

During spring snowmelt, the waterfall's water volume increases substantially and creates striking patterns in the limestone rocks. This season displays the power of flowing water at its fullest.
