Sommières, our family walk
Activities: We walked past the castle, but it was closed on the day we visited. We saw the back of the castle, which looked a bit abandoned. We were able to get a good view of the castle and the surrounding area
Highlights: We enjoyed the views from the top of the hill, looking down at the castle and the town. The castle was a beautiful landmark, even though we didn't get to go inside ✨
