L'Ermitage d'Asson

In the heart of the Ouzoum Valley, the hill of Ermitage d'Asson was once called "oppidum". This term means a highly fortified site that probably dates from the Iron Age and was transformed in the Middle Ages. At this time, this castle had moats, defence embankments and a central street that we can still make out today. One of the marked hiking trails in the Nay Region, called "a millenium pastoral community ", passes exactly through there; it is the culmination of this marked trail.
