Anglards-de-Salers walks

A very pleasant short walk to discover the Salins waterfall, the Monzola stream and the village of Salins, mostly in the shade of the undergrowth. There are many points of interest along the route to keep children interested (waterfall, rope bridge, river, etc.). The path is fully marked in blue. A huge thank you to the Communauté de Communes du Pays de Mauriac for developing and maintaining this walk.

A beautiful hike, lovingly mapped out in the heart of the Cantal between the castles of Chambres and Mazerolles.

This accessible and enjoyable hike is ideal for the whole family, including children. It takes you through splendid landscapes to the summer pastures and offers breathtaking views of the burons, evidence of a mountain tradition that is still very much alive. A great opportunity to enjoy nature while discovering the authenticity of this region. A beautiful circular route that combines nature, heritage and breathtaking views. 

A circular route in the village of Trizac, before setting off to explore the Bois du Fayet, where the Marilhou stream flows.

Set off to explore the Planèze de Trizac, a wild landscape where volcanoes, mountain pastures and traditions shape unique scenery. Throughout the hike, nature here tells a true mountain story. Amidst the high-altitude meadows, the majestic yellow gentian appears, the emblem of the Auvergne mountains. With its tall stems and vibrant flowers, it brings colour to the pastures and evokes the ancestral expertise behind the famous gentian liqueur. A highlight of the route, the Suc de Rond offers an exceptional panorama of the peaks of the volcanic range as well as the Sancy massif. This iconic volcanic landscape overlooks the mountain pastures where herds still graze in summer, harmoniously blending nature, history and mountain traditions.

If you love hiking but don’t have four hours to spare, this walk is the perfect compromise! Head up into the hills and explore Saint-Martin-Valmeroux by following the local footpaths. You can enjoy beautiful views of the valley and discover the region’s landscapes at your own pace. A lovely opportunity to take a peaceful stroll, with family or on your own, and savour the natural, tranquil atmosphere of the area. It’s a lovely route that combines peace and nature, with a few technical sections only in the first part, but ideal for hiking enthusiasts

Depuis le lieu-dit Roupeyroux, cette randonnée vous invite à découvrir un parcours authentique qui mêle nature et histoire. Le sentier, en partie non balisé, suit des traces anciennes utilisées autrefois lors des transhumances. Au fil de votre marche, vous longerez le Ruisseau de Saint-Rémy, dont les murmures apportent une sérénité bienvenue. Le chemin, parsemé de nombreux cailloux, requiert de bonnes chaussures pour une progression confortable. Heureusement, l’ombre généreuse des arbres vous accompagnera tout au long du parcours, vous offrant des pauses rafraîchissantes à chaque étape.

A circular route passing by the summit of Puy de Menoyre, which was once a viewpoint... and also the site of an old quarry.

A short circular loop to discover the best of the Cirque d’Impramau. Breathtaking views of almost the entire Cantal volcano, and a chance to immerse yourself in the tranquillity of the Impramau summer pastures. The first two-thirds follow marked and unmarked paths; the final third is almost entirely off-trail, taking you through summer pastures, over rocks, across numerous streams and through fence gates that you sometimes have to search for, but it’s well worth the effort. You’ll be walking amongst animals—cows, horses and sheep—guarded by livestock guard dogs. If you’re an early riser, it’s common to spot chamois, mouflons and marmots, and sometimes vultures from Lozère. Visorando app recommended
