Simply
cross the bridge
and there is Beaujeu!
If Beaujeu ever was a real village, it was a
very long time ago. Today, no more than about a dozen houses remain
huddled around a small church, on the banks of a crystal clear river
planted with slender poplar trees. A few old stone houses laze in the
sun, facing due south, between peaceful allotments and gardens.
Water
gurgles in the fine washhouse with a tiled roof, and the local dog will
not even raise its head as you pass by.
The finest house in the village is without a doubt the mountain guide's.
You can contact him to find out about the many possibilities for hiking
or snow shoe treks in winter, offered by the superb untouched natural
environment of this peaceful little Arigéol valley.
