Pic Saint-Loup

Saint-Loup is the highest observation point in the Montpellier area, and a perfect place to go for a rewarding hike. The reward awaits at the very top, when lush valleys below unfold to reveal breathtaking panoramic views. Comfortable covered shoes are essential. Paths varying in degrees of difficulty.

Do & See

There is plenty to do in the way of culture and entertainment, as well as exciting tours to go on - from regional vineyards and wineries to hiking up Pic St-Loup. Visit the city's many cathedrals (Carre Sainte-Anne is one that stands out with its refurbished interior turned into an art space), walk down the windy streets of the old town, and plan a field trip to the nearby seaside villages.
