Several photographs of the area which is outstanding for a relaxed and sportive holiday . The Cévennes are a range of mountains in south-central France, covering parts of the départements of Ardèche, Gard, Hérault and Lozère. The mountain range also gives its name to a meteorological effect when cold air from the Atlantic coast meets warm air of southern winds from the Mediterranean and causes heavy autumnal downpours, often leading to floods. These are called épisodes cévenols.
