THE ROCKS OF PRIDE

An emblematic and original site with its abrupt relief which is the subject of a small hike. At the top of these granitic rocks, there is a beautiful panorama on the forests of Mint and La Motte. One of the rocks is overcome by a calvary. It was long and until the middle of the last century a pilgrimage place. This small massif as posed between fields, meadows and neighboring trees, with just some brush at its base interrogates and did not fail to produce legends. The most popular staged a fairy that lived a cave where she listened to the wishes of those who had lost a tool or another object. Suffice it to say by mentioning the lost object: Ah! If I had that of the Rock fairies! , to find him. It is also said that farmers could ask for beef for the ploys that had to go to the fairy in the evening. Some say the fairy treasure would be hidden under one of the blocks… Since 2014, an electro festival is taking place at the foot of the Rocks, the last weekend of August. Nevertheless, the Orgères Rock site is a private site. If the owners tolerate the passage of tourists, this must be done by respecting the places and this cannot be done in the event of an accident.
