It was...

 

Hi friends :wink:

 

The location was "les pénitents, Les Mées"

 

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_M%C3%A9es_%28Alpes-de-Haute-Provence%29

 

On the Mees territory, is a very special geological formation, called the Penitents (classified site). This name comes from the shape of a mass of jagged rock beside the village, which evokes a group of monks wearing pointy hoods. Although the facade of Penitents evokes rock forms more or less conical, there is a set of tiny ridges and canyons, stopping simulans on a vertical plane. This course runs for approximately a mile, and the highest cliff reaches 114 meters.
