Tourism in Clermont-l'Hérault
At the crossroads of the routes to Béziers and Montpellier, the town of Clermont-l'Hérault is the gateway to Salagou and the Parc des Causses. Staying in our hotel in Clermont-l'Hérault means being close to major natural sites such as the Salagou lake and the Navacelles cirque, as well as discovering an exceptional historical heritage, as witnessed by the village of Saint-Guilhem-le-désert.
A rich natural heritage
Created 50 years ago by the construction of the dam, the crystal-clear waters of the Lac du Salagou are reflected in the ochre-coloured earth of this vibrant region. A unique place, you can explore it by bike or on horseback from our hotel in Clermont-l'Hérault. The dolomitic cirque of Mourèze is a special feature and well worth a visit. Made up of very calcitic and therefore crumbly rock, rain and run-off have formed a rugged landscape that resembles the aftermath of an earthquake. The imposing Navacelles cirque was formed several thousand years ago by the meandering of the river Vis.
A major historical heritage
Situated on the banks of the Hérault gorges, Saint-Guilhem-le-désert is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful villages in France. The village boasts a rich architectural heritage, with a Romanesque church built between the 11th and 13th centuries, a cloister dating back to the Abbey of Saint-Sauveur-de-Gellone and numerous stone houses. Saint-Guilhem-le-désert is only twenty kilometres from Clermont l'Hérault.
Montpellier, the capital of Languedoc, is lively and bustling with students, and invites you to wander its steep streets. Have a drink on the famous Place de la Comédie, visit the massive cathedral of Saint-Pierre or stroll along the Allées Peyrou, which runs alongside the Roman Aqueduct of Saint-Clement. Culture lovers will love the Musée Fabre, where you can admire paintings by Rubens, Delacroix and Gustave Courbet. Montpellier is around forty kilometres from Clermont l'Hérault.
