Le Saltadou : Panorama du cirque de Saint-Chély-du-Tarn

Le Saltadou observation point reveals limestone cliffs, natural amphitheaters, and deep valleys carved by the Tarn River through geological formations.

The viewpoint came to prominence during the 19th century when travelers began exploring the Gorges du Tarn's geological features and natural landscapes.

Local guides share information about traditional farming practices, including sheep grazing on surrounding plateaus that maintain the regional agricultural identity.

The observation platform provides unobstructed views at 900 meters elevation, with dedicated parking areas and information panels about local flora and fauna.

Visitors can observe griffon vultures nesting in the rock faces while listening to the sounds of waterfalls cascading through the limestone formations.
