Aubussargues walks

A short, shady walk for most of the way. You'll discover a variety of landscapes. Paths full of flowers and scents of different types of wood, freshness and proximity to the river.Ideal for groups or families. Be careful between (7) and (8), where you walk on the asphalt road.

Stroll through the vineyards around Bourdic to discover the grape varieties and the amazing rocks carved into the walls of an ancient Roman quarry.

This short route through the village of Saint-Chaptes in the Gard allows you to discover the rocks sculpted in open garrigue and also gives you a view over the village, its old narrow streets and its castle.

Discover Blauzac, its Roman bridge and its "capitelles", dry-stone buildings used mainly as shelters for farmers.

A lovely hike, preferably done in spring to avoid the summer heat. A fine balance between shady paths in charming oak forests and open areas mostly in vineyards. The thousand-year-old juniper tree alone is worth the trip, such is its majesty.

Hike through the heart of the heath, along the cliffs overlooking the Gardon. The views of the Saint-Nicolas bridge and the river are magnificent.

A very beautiful route that allows you to visit the small village of Vic and get as close as possible to the Gardon river with the sublime viewpoint of Castellas. This hike is not recommended in the height of summer. Very little of the route is in the shade.

The word "yerle" is of Occitan origin and refers to the alluvial part of a river bend. The route follows the top of the cliffs of the Gorges du Gardon, which overlook the river by about a hundred metres. Numerous caves are visible in the cliffs, including the Grotte de la Trône (currently closed for preservation), which contains paintings dating back 37,000 years. Descend to the Gardon twice, then take a short walk on the large cliff at Russan.

From the Pont Saint-Nicolas de Campagnac and its priory, a loop takes you through part of the Gorges du Gardon. You can admire the meandering Gardon, the Grotte de la Trône (an ancient prehistoric shelter with drawings of mammoths and a feline dating from the Upper Palaeolithic behind a closed iron door), the Baume Percée, seen from above and below, the climbing cliffs at Russan...

A walk along the Alzon river allows you to discover the source of the Eure, which was captured by the Romans to supply Nîmes with drinking water via the aqueduct. The remains are still visible. The walk then climbs to a magnificent viewpoint offering a wide panorama of Uzès.

A circuit around Uzès, discovering the Eure valley and its source that once fed the city of Nimes, then a loop through Gardoise scrubland to return to Uzès.

A beautiful circuit in the Gard garrigue, discovering some of its small hidden hamlets.

A beautiful walk through the Mediterranean forest to reach the Gardon and enjoy La Chapelle. Please note that the cave is closed from 1 May to 15 August and from 15 November to 15 March. The descent is gentle, but the climb back up is steeper, though fairly short. Alternatively, set off from Collias to enjoy the Gardon Gorges for longer 30/10/2023: I have reclassified this route as "medium difficulty" following several comments about the steep climb on the way back (+100m over 300m)

This is a fairly shaded hike, with one section offering a lovely view. The quarries are a fun and peaceful place for a picnic. The distance is not a problem as there is little elevation gain, making this a hike that is accessible to many, with the added bonus of a visit to Saint Quentin and its pottery workshops on the way back!

This is a simple hike with little elevation gain, just over 20 km, so it's a bit challenging but still accessible to many. Above all, it's a very pleasant hike. Starting from Euzet-les-Bains, this route takes you through Saint-Hippolyte-de-Caton, Saint-Étienne-d'Olm, Saint-Cézaire-de-Gauzignan, Saint-Maurice-de-Cazevieille and Saint-Jean-de-Ceyrargues. Between each village, you will pass through pleasant countryside with fields and woods.

Small circuit around Euzet, to discover the Cave or Baume des Camisards.
