Surrounded in legend for centuries, Bugarach Mountain has become a focal point for many Apocalypse believers as rumors have circulated that its mountain contains Portals into other worlds, or that extraterrestrials will return here on Judgment day to take refuge at their base. Residents of the tiny southern French hamlet, population 200, are witness to a rising influx of Doomsday believers convinced it is the only place on earth that will survive judgment day.
“Further, rumours persist that the country’s late president François Mitterrand was transported by helicopter on to the peak, while the Nazis, and, later, Israel’s Mossad, performed mysterious digs there. Now the nearby village is awash with New Agers, who have boosted the local economy, though their naked group climbs up to the peak have raised concerns as well as eyebrows. Among other oddities, some hikers have been spotted scaling the mountain carrying a ball with a golden ring, strung together by a single thread”.
France recently dashed the hopes of those who had planned to take refuge in one of the few places on Earth safe from destruction.
Local officials banned access to the Pic de Bugarach, a mountain in the southwest of France where many are waiting to board alien craft to unknown locations in the universe.
Eric Freysselinard, the state’s top representative in the area, said he was blocking access to the mountain for public safety reasons to avoid a rush of New Age fanatics, sightseers and media crews.
Believers say the world will end on December 21, 2012, the end date of the ancient Mayan calendar, and they see Bugarach as one of a few sacred mountains sheltered from the cataclysm.
Freysselinard said the 100 police and firefighters he plans to deploy will also control approaches to the tiny village of the same name at the foot of the mountain, and if too many people turn up, they will block access there too.
