Gorges de la Langouette
The Gorges de la Langouette is a canyon in the French Alps near Les Planches-en-Montagne, where steep rock walls frame a narrow valley. Water has shaped this formation over time, creating dramatic limestone cliffs that make it a natural viewpoint.
The gorge was carved by erosion over millions of years as water flowed through limestone layers. This natural formation has long drawn visitors interested in the geological history of the Alpine region.
Wear sturdy footwear since the paths can be uneven and sometimes slippery. It helps to arrive early to enjoy the space without crowds and find the best viewing spots.
This place is often overlooked as a hidden gem, though the view into the gorge captivates those who find it. The quieter trails lead to secluded spots where you can fully experience the silence and the sound of flowing water.
