If you have the soul of a pilgrim and wish to discover the hidden sides of Santiago de Compostela, then this route is for you.
This alternative to the famous route to Santiago de Compostela is divided into four stages, each around twenty kilometres long. You’ll enjoy superb scenery in the heart of the Margeride Mountains and the vast plateaus of the Aubrac, and I’m sure you’ll be surprised by the rich, little-known architectural heritage dedicated to this famous saint.

This third stage of the Tour des Monts d'Aubrac is one of the most varied. It contrasts the crossing of the wild, desert-like expanses of the Monts d'Aubrac in the first half with the coolness of the Aubrac National Forest and the Tourbières Nature Reserve in the second half. From the Buron des Rajas, isolated at an altitude of 1,300 metres, the stage ends in the small village of Saint-Chély-d'Aubrac, at the bottom of the Boralde de Saint-Chély valley, 500 metres lower down.
