Mende, France - Where Urban meets Outdoors
Sunday October 5, 2008
Mende, in the rural and mountainous Lozere, is a small city of about 12,000 people. This is a wonderful destination for anyone who wants to be in a town, but in the midst of nature at its finest, unique wildlife and outdoor activities like hang gliding, mountain climbing and canoeing.
You could hardly find a more ideal center for outdoor activities, be it horse-back riding, mountain biking, hiking, speleology or kayaking. Mende is at the doorstep of the Cevennes National Forest. It is close to the breathtaking Gorges du Tarn, a massive 25-mile canyon.
