Roc Blanc, Mountain summit in Hérault, France

Roc Blanc is a mountain peak in the Séranne range that reaches 942 meters in elevation. The summit features limestone cliffs and slopes covered with Mediterranean vegetation that varies across different elevation zones.

Roc Blanc marks the northern end of the Séranne massif, overlooking the Vis valley and the Causse de Blandas to the west and the Buèges valley and the Causse de la Selle to the east. Its 942-metre summit now carries an observation post and a few antennas. The mountain is reached by road from Ganges via the RD 4 to Cazilhac, then the RD 4E9 and a roughly 7 km stony track, or on foot from Gorniés through Les Euzes, or from Saint-André-de-Buèges via Notre-Dame-du-Suc.

The summit is a launch site for hang gliders and paragliders, and the Coupiac landing field lies 45 minutes north of Montpellier. The site is reached by a roughly 7 km stony track from the RD 4E9 above Cazilhac, or on foot from Gorniés via Les Euzes or from Saint-André-de-Buèges via Notre-Dame-du-Suc.

By car, take the RD 4 from Ganges to Cazilhac, then the small RD 4E9 above the village; before the road drops on the far side, turn left onto a long stony track of about 7 km to the summit. On foot from the Vis valley, the climb starts at Gorniés and passes Les Euzes; from the Buèges valley it starts at Saint-André-de-Buèges via Notre-Dame-du-Suc.

On clear days, the panoramic view from the summit stretches from the Pyrenees to Mont Ventoux and includes the Mediterranean Sea and the Cevennes mountains. This wide vista makes the peak a special place to grasp the geographic scope of the southern French landscape.
