Fraissinet-de-Lozère walks

A very short hike to admire a magnificent waterfall that flows all year round.

A beautiful route that takes you from Pont-de-Monvert along part of the Stevenson Trail (GR®70), then through heathland and forests to Pont du Tarn.

Ninth stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage features significant changes to the GR®70 signposting, taking an alternative route to the GR®70 for much of the way. This means that the stage is substantially shorter than the official route. This stage marks the entry of the Chemin de Stevenson into the Cévennes region.

Of the various routes on offer, this one is a compromise: it first follows the Stevenson Trail via the high point of Le Bougès, then stays on the left bank of the Tarn all the way to Florac

Mont Lozère rises to 1,699 metres, making it the highest point in the Cévennes. However, its geological nature sets it apart from the rest of the massif. This imposing granite wall closes off the schist valleys of the Cévennes and heralds the high plateaus of southern Auvergne. It also offers magnificent views of all the peaks of the southern Massif Central, as far as Mont Ventoux. Best explored in good weather.

This hike will take you to the source of the Tarn. You will follow drovers' roads through the woods, cross the hamlet of L'Hôpital and its ruins, then follow the path winding through heather, pastures and granite rock formations to reach the Roman-style bridge over the Tarn. Finally, you will walk along the Tarn with its clear water dotted with rocks emerging from the surface, offering the opportunity for a swim before heading back down to the starting point.

This is an easy hike that allows you to discover the different landscapes of Lozère, the Béal de Felgerolles, the Tarn and a few picturesque hamlets typical of Mont Lozère. It also offers beautiful views of the Cévennes landscape. The wooded sections make it particularly pleasant in hot weather.

Menhirs are found in Brittany. The proof: the name itself is of Breton origin (maen hir = long stone). And even more so when they are made of granite. But if I told you that one of Europe's main megalithic sites is in Lozère, would you believe me? The standing stones along this route at the foot of Mont Lozère are like those scattered by Tom Thumb: just follow them to find your way.

This walk will allow you to experience the atmosphere of the Haut Tarn plain, one of the iconic landscapes of agropastoralism. Along the way, you’ll discover a blend of nature, heritage and local history.

A peaceful walk for the whole family along the Felgérolles irrigation channel to the Tarn bridge.

The Col de Finiels is the road crossing over Mont Lozère, between its two peaks, Finiels and Pic Cassini. This means that, once out of the woods, on the moors and peaks, the views are extraordinary, sometimes to the south over the Cévennes, to the north over the chain of volcanoes, and to the east, further away, when the weather is clear, over the Alps.

Discover Mont Lozère on a very pleasant circular route through alpine pastures and then forest. This is a very enjoyable walk that is sure to delight young and old alike.

This hike, starting from the Col de Finiels in the heart of Mont Lozère, takes us along the ridge of Mont Lozère, where the magnificent views allow us to look out over the Cévennes National Park. We then witness the very source of a great river, from the very first stream known as ‘Le Tarn’, right up to the first stone bridge spanning it. The route passes through Mas Camargues, a farming village in the Causses des Cévennes, which may date back to the Knights Hospitaller of Saint John of Jerusalem. Returning via the ancient Roman road ensures we have completed a magnificent journey that brings together nature, history and geography.

A very beautiful hike that takes you from the undergrowth of the Bougès National Forest up to the Tarn plain and the foothills of Mont Lozère.

A pleasant hike accessible to all on the roof of the Cévennes with exceptional landscapes throughout the route.

The first part of the hike follows the Balade au pays des Menhirs discovery trail. The rest of the route continues to the hamlet of La Fage. In addition to the Clocher des Tourmentes bell tower marked on the IGN map, you can admire beautiful granite houses covered with slate tiles. Unfortunately, while some have been restored, others are partly abandoned.

Tenth stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage may involve significant changes to the GR®70 signposting. This stage essentially follows the Mimente valley before it flows into the Tarnon at Florac.

Route starting from the Col de la Croix de Berthel in the heart of the southern Cévennes. A day hike without any major difficulties.

The circular route takes you through a beautiful forest (particularly welcome in hot weather). There are some magnificent views during the first half of the route, including a 360° view, allowing you to admire the surrounding mountains and the Mediterranean Sea.
