Le Ségala: Castelpers and Roc de Miramont
Hike located at the confluence of three valleys and between two picturesque villages, Saint-Just and Castelpers.

This small sanctuary overlooks the Giffou gorges from a height of 150 metres and houses a statue of the Virgin Mary crushing three black snakes.
