Alzon walks

This loop around the village of Alzon is ideal for families, allowing you to hike along an old railway line through tunnels and over viaducts. Bring a torch for certain sections.

A magnificent circular route in the southern Cévennes for experienced hikers, offering a wide variety of biotopes and panoramic views. Gorse, beech forests, pine forests and grassy plains await you, dotted with streams and lakes. Discover Pic Saint-Guiral, a pyramid-shaped rock on the grass, as well as Lac des Pises and its astronomical observatory. There are no particular difficulties on this route apart from its length.

A spectacular cirque with breathtaking views.

Saint-Guiral, the legendary rock of the Aigoual massif, can be reached from the Col de l'Homme Mort. The first part overlooks the upper Vis valley. The view stretches from Pic d'Anjau to the whole of Séranne. From the summit of Saint-Guiral, you can enjoy a 360° view. But you'll need to climb with your hands! In the second part, the trail is off the beaten track and runs alongside the charming Crouzoulous stream. It will take you to the beautiful abandoned farm of Grandesc Haute, lost in the forest.

From the cliff top, there is an exceptional view over the Cirque de Navacelles. The Blandas plateau is at an average altitude of 700 metres, offering unobstructed views of the surrounding region. The vegetation is constantly changing, with black pines, cedars, box trees and meadows. This plateau also conceals many prehistoric remains.

Hike along the old railway line with its engineering structures and the picturesque village of Sauclières.

Several paths connect Saint-Jean-du-Bruel to Algues, the former stronghold of the Roquefeuil family overlooking the Dourbie valley. This is an easy 7km route with a moderate incline, ideal for a leisurely stroll.

A short hike takes you to an ancient place of procession where you can enjoy the view over Saint-Jean-du-Bruel.

From schist to sandstone, through chestnut trees and the remains of old calamine furnaces.

Former calamine furnaces, the Œil de Bœuf and the Tombeau du Géant on the Causse Bégon. Step back in time from the industrial era to prehistory.

From one side of the Dourbie to the other via the Tayrac footbridge.

This walk takes place entirely within the "Les Causses et les Cévennes" site, which is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. From Navacelles, you climb up the Gorges de la Vis to its resurgence. After visiting the Moulins de la Foux, the return journey halfway up the southern slope of the Causse de Blandas offers spectacular views of the Gorges de la Vis and the Cirque de Navacelles. You have to walk in the Cirque de Navacelles at least once in your life, that's all there is to it! Don't think twice: just go!

A beautiful hike in a magnificent setting, with one of the most beautiful cirques in the region and the resurgence of the Vis.

A fairly conventional circuit that lets walkers admire the Cirque de Navacelles and hike in the gorges of La Vis. The ruins of the Moulins de la Foux are the ultimate goal of the hike, with beautiful explanations of these water mills and on the underground portion of the screw, not yet fully explored.

A circuit on the southern slopes of the Aigoual massif around the Lac des Pises, which can be done in winter on snowshoes (average altitude 1250 m) or on foot.
