Nestled in a forgotten valley of the Cevennes lies Colombières. A former silk farm (magnanerie) named after the dovecote that once stood here in the forest, some 5 km from the village of St-Martin-de-Boubaux. Colombières is just over thirty minutes from Alès or one hour from the center of Nimes (the nearest TGV station) by car. The nearest (international) airport is a 75-minute drive. It is located near to several short and long-distance hiking routes and is the ideal base to discover the beautiful Cevennes or the Rhone valley vineyards. Robert Louis Stephenson famously described the Cevennes in his book Travels with my Donkey. Since then the area has become deserted following WWI and urbanization. It is amongst the most thinly populated areas of France. Traces of human habitation abound in large swathes of land reconquered by the forests, home to abundant wildlife.
