10th Transhumance Festival (2025) — Anniversary Edition

The 10th edition of the Transhumance Festival was celebrated on Sunday, June 15, 2025, at the Domaine de Rochemure in Jaujac, from 10 am to 6 pm. This anniversary edition offered a festive and authentic program.

The family entertainment delighted young and old: wooden games, carriage rides, and a mini-farm to interact with animals. The sheepdog demonstrations with goose and sheep herds captivated the audience, while the shearing demonstrations revealed the precise gestures of the breeders.

The producers' and artisans' market offered honey, chestnuts, blueberries, cheeses, cured meats, juices, ice cream, and local crafts. The grand meal, organized by the breeders, featured biassou lamb accompanied by Ardèche products.

Around 4 pm, the flock headed towards the Tanargue summer pastures, accompanied by the shepherds and walkers, in a colorful pastoral procession.
