Grotte de l'Ermite (Eyzahut) walks

A beautiful and varied hike, best done in dry weather by experienced hikers, with magnificent panoramic views. The GPX track will be very useful, especially on the plateau. Allow at least 6 hours, including a lunch break, to fully enjoy this hike, which seems shorter than it actually is.

For experienced hikers, this is a beautiful hike, partly through the woods on unmarked trails. After a very beautiful passage along the ridge, they lead to cliffs followed by a dizzying descent into a rocky ridge to the Grotte de l'Ermite, a natural excavation in the rocks. Above, stand the summit of Châtelard and the ruins of an ancient watchtower dating from the Middle Ages, destroyed during the Wars of Religion. The panoramic view over the valley is superb.

A short hike along a path that once led to the Grotte de l’Ermite and a castle destroyed during the Wars of Religion. Perched on a narrow ridge, this viewpoint offers a lovely 360° view of the village of Eyzahut and the cliffs, with the forest of Saoû, the Trois Becs to Roche Colombe, the Grand Delmas and the Couspeau mountain as a backdrop.

This route takes you along small roads, forest tracks and footpaths, allowing you to discover different landscapes and villages. Starting from Rochebaudin, the route passes through the Col du Perthuis, the Col de Ventebrun, Dieulefit, Poët-Laval, the Grand Pas quarry and Eyzahut.
