Highlights
  • Belvédère Orgues d’Île - Greetings, I am Thierry. My English may not be perfect, but I am more than happy to guide you on an extraordinary journey to the two renowned Organs sites, nestled within the white granite massif. We’ll embark on an exploration that begins with the local wildlife, including a live demonstration of bird calls.

Next, we’ll venture to the second site, which is only reachable by a truffle farmer’s path and offers a spectacular, exclusive view from the summit of the Organs. Prepare to be amazed by the stunning vistas!

There, you’ll encounter Adrien, a truly remarkable individual!

At 86 years young, this truffle farmer is a passionate and captivating storyteller who will introduce you to his quaint farm and his love for the precious ‘black diamonds.’

He will present us with an extraordinary and awe-inspiring perspective of the Organs site from above.

The trail is relatively flat, making it suitable for everyone, regardless of age.

Our incredible journey will conclude with a friendly aperitif.

Release notice:
A splendid guided excursion through a grand landscape, rich with aromas, hues, and splendor…
A charming encounter with Adrien. Experiencing the truffle universe in such a unique way is utterly surprising. And the crowning glory, the view over the Organs, is simply breathtaking.
A heartfelt thanks to Thierry for this outing, your insightful explanations, and your expertise.
