Coulées basaltiques

It stands out very clearly in the landscape by its black cliffs which we call Basaltic Organs.
We will find them near our villages like St jean le Centenier, St Pons, Mirabel,… You just have to look at the landscape to find them.
Here the basalt organs which form vertically when the lava cools are clearly visible.
The slower the cooling, the more regular the prisms (organs) are.
