====Plateaus of the Haut-Vivarais and the Cévennes==== [[File:Gorges du Chassezac.jpg|thumb|Gorges du Chassezac]] [[File:Le cirque de la Madeleine 2011.jpg|thumb|Cirque de la Madeleine, formed by the Ardèche River]] The transition zone descending from the mountains (1,200 m) to the valley of the Rhône (300 to 400 m), is the plateau region. The plateau's medium altitude is one of green forested crests separated by wild and uncrossable [[Canyon|gorges]]. [[Hydrology|Hydrographic]] resources are dominated by these torrential streams and rainfall is characterised by frequent summer showers, with the climate much less extreme than that of the mountains to the west.
