Gorges De La Méouge, Protected natural canyon in Barret-sur-Méouge, France.

The limestone formations of Gorges de la Méouge stretch for 7 kilometers, featuring deep pools, waterfalls, and narrow passages carved by the river.

The geological formation began millions of years ago when water erosion through limestone created this natural canyon system in the Provence-Alpes region.

The site holds a collection of native plant species, including nationally protected euphorbia graminifolia and scandix stellata, representing local natural heritage.

Visitors can access multiple marked hiking trails throughout the reserve, with parking facilities available at designated entrance points along the gorge.

The first Sunday of October school holidays excludes motorized traffic, allowing pedestrians and cyclists exclusive access to the entire gorge system.
