Circular route between Causse and the valley

Along the route, walkers pass through a wide variety of natural environments and landscapes. Intermittent watercourses: the bed of the Lère Morte, visible depending on the season. Former farming areas, evidence of an agricultural past linked in particular to hemp production. Riparian forest and wooded slopes: cool, shady areas dominated by mosses and undergrowth. Downy oak forests: stands adapted to stony, dry soils. Limestone cliffs: rock formations marking the relief of the causse. The route offers a succession of contrasting landscapes: fields, forest, open valley, cliffs, causse.
