You will discover a magnificent view of the Hautes Cévennes Ardéchoises and the land of young volcanoes.
The Château de Craux is located in the commune of Genestelle, at an altitude of around 650 m. It is built on the crater of the volcano (neck). It stands in the middle of vast meadows, surrounded by a superb chestnut grove, and overlooks the Volane and Sandron valleys.
