La Salle-Prunet walks

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.

An easy hike in the mineral world of the Causse Méjean: a plateau marked by both austerity and gentle tranquillity. You will stroll through a landscape full of curves, between hills and sinkholes at the bottom of which you will discover a lavogne (a small, circular depression in the ground) or a small cultivated field: one of the characteristic landscapes of the UNESCO-listed sites. (Route information provided by the Gorges du Tarn, Causses & Cévennes tourist office).

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.

Located at the crossroads of the Grands Causses, Mont Lozère and the Cévennes valleys, the Ispagnac valley boasts a wide variety of geological features. Limestone, granite and schist blend together, creating diverse landscapes shaped by the nature of the subsoil. This trail, which runs along the foot of the Causse Méjean, offers you a walk through a schistose terroir.

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

To the west, the Ispagnac valley is closed off by the Causse de Sauveterre, which overlooks it by about 500 metres. The route takes you up from this pleasant countryside to the much harsher landscape of the causse. The two hamlets of Paros and Mas André mark this route, which winds through the woods for almost half of its length.

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.

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.

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.

Eleventh stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage includes significant changes to the GR®70 signposting. This stage lies in the heart of the Cévennes National Park.

A short, fairly easy circular route that takes you up to the heights of the village via a pretty path through heathland covered with broom, heather and ferns, then gently back down through a forest of pine, oak and chestnut trees. Some beautiful viewpoints.

This hike is accessible to everyone, young and old, in the Plan de Fontmort massif. Part of the circular route is along the ridges with a view of Mont Aigoual, then descends to the refreshing Mimente before climbing back up the Chemin de Stevenson to Plan de Formont.

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

Starting from the small village of Paros (no, don't dream, it's not the Cyclades!) above Molines (commune of Ispagnac) in Lozère, this is a beautiful hike with views of the Tarn in the first part, then of the Causse du Sauveterre.

Starting from the hamlet of L'Hom, this hike first takes you to discover the endless spaces of the southern part of the Causse Méjean. Endless grassy and rocky hills, interspersed with cultivated plots and coniferous woods, allow you to take in the immensity of the landscape. It concludes with a visit to the discovery trail of the chaos of Nîmes le Vieux, bristling with hundreds of strangely shaped rocks sculpted by erosion. Informative panels are strategically placed along the trail to complement the experience. A beautiful day, punctuated by visits to the Causse hamlets of L'Hom, Le Veygalier and Villeuneuve, with their remarkable architecture.

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.

An easy hike on the Causse Méjan starting from Nivoliers via La Bégude Blanche and La Fretma, a remarkably restored hamlet on the Causse. TheGR®60passes through the wide open spaces reserved for Przewalski's horses... but you'll need a bit of luck to spot them!

This circular route starting from Le Pompidou offers varied landscapes and atmospheres, beginning on the heights of the Vallée Borgne, with beautiful views of the valley, before reaching the limestone plateau of the Can de l'Hospitalet, a mini-causse isolated in the middle of the Cévennes. The return journey is on the other side of the Corniche des Cévennes, on the Vallée Française side, with more beautiful views and a visit to the Old Church of Saint-Flour.

This lovely circular starting from Le Pompidou takes you through three different types of landscape: schist, granite and limestone. There are beautiful panoramic views at various points along the way. The varied vegetation consists of beech, ash, ferns and broom. You will also pass through fields of cereal crops, chestnut groves and pastures.

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.

Starting from Galli, this is a lovely circular route on the Causse Méjean that passes through the beautiful setting of the charmingly restored Fretma farm. A short detour allows you to see the Berre reservoir, not to be confused with the lake of the same name.

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.

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

Walk up the Bramont Gorges and explore a magnificent and picturesque area with its steep cliffs and turbulent river. This unusual landscape offers a pleasant cool spot in summer. Pass through the small village of drystone shelter, with its typical Causse houses, located in the foothills of the Mont Lozère massif.

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.

An alternative route to walkno. 2842225:the Bramont Gorges and the hamlet of La Borie. Explore the Bramont Gorges starting from Saint-Étienne-du-Valdonnez, passing through the hamlet of La Fage and returning via Bassy. Most of the route runs through woodland. Beautiful views over the Cham des Bondons, the Echino d’Aze and one of the puechs, as well as the Truc de Balduc.

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.
