The Bagnols Sabran hillclimb is named after two towns. Its circuit lies in the small town of Sabran. Located on the hills overlooking the valley of the river Cèze, it still sports some old buildings like the ruins of a 12th century château.
The Cèze valley with its flowing hills that can reach 250m, is overshadowed by another river that flows some 25km further north. The Ardèche river has cut through the landscape leaving steep gorges. This natural wonder is protected in the natural park Gorges de l’Ardeche and is not to be missed on any trip to the area.
The Bagnols in the hillclimb title refers to the larger town Bagnols-sur-Cèze. Although it is an historic town Bagnols did not develop much until it industrialized in the 1950’s. Politically it belongs to the Languedoc-Roussilon region, but geographically it is more alike the nearby Vaucluse.
Although itself perhaps not the most interesting destination for a holiday, there is a lot more to see nearby. There is the old Roman city of Orange (25km east), historic Avignon (35km south) or you can discover the Rhône valley with its world famous wines.
