Ravin de Corboeuf, Natural cliff formation in Rosières, France
The Ravin de Corboeuf displays multicolored clay formations with distinct horizontal layers, creating a canyon landscape in the Haute-Loire region.
The ravine incorporates segments of the former Galoche railway line, which connected Lavoûte-sur-Loire to Voulte-sur-Rhône until its closure in 1952.
Local residents refer to this geological formation as the Colorado of Auvergne due to its striped clay patterns and natural rock formations.
The hiking trail starts at the free parking area near the gendarmerie in Rosières, offering a 5.7-kilometer loop that takes approximately two hours to complete.
The geological site presents alternating layers of red, green, and blue clay deposits, forming distinctive horizontal patterns across the cliff faces.
