The route starts from Les Mazes heading north, then gradually follows the drovers' road and soon, with your head increasingly in the sky, you will gain 300 metres in altitude and enjoy sumptuous panoramic views. The return journey follows the Mardonenque boralde (small river).

Circular through six Aubrac burons (stone huts) from Lac des Moines
Burons are an integral part of the architectural heritage of the Aubrac. These small stone houses were once used by farmers to watch over their cows and produce cheese during the summer. Although they are part of the landscape and soul of the Aubrac, today nearlytwo-thirds of them are disappearing due to lack of use. Let's give them back the interest they deserve by walking alongside them! This hike will take you from buron to buron, through magnificent landscapes and unusual discoveries. Come and walk, observe, picnic and maybe soon sleep in these refuges that are just waiting for you!

Panoramic views of the Aubrac from Marchastel
As its name suggests, this hike offers sweeping views of the Aubrac plateau, creating a kind of horizontal vertigo. To enjoy these views, you will need to climb two volcanic hills, which are not difficult. The villages of Rieutort and Marchastel boast beautiful heritage sites.
In the woods of Combetalade
This walk through the woods offers panoramic views of the Lot valley and the villages of Saint-Geniez-d'Olt, Pomayrols and its castle.
In fact, it's the Aveyron as we love it.
Passing by the ruins of Le Violon.
A trail combining Caussenard heritage, an old drovers' road and breathtaking views: from the top of the Causses foothills, you can see the Lot Valley stretching into the distance, as well as the Aubrac plateau.
The Lot balcony in Chanac
On the rocky spur overlooking the Lot, downstream from Chanac, there are two settlements: Le Villard Vieux, the first hilltop village, and Le Villard Jeune, the second village. In the Middle Ages, Le Villard was part of the domain of the Château de Chanac, an episcopal possession of which only the famous keep remains today.The route differs from the marked route by remaining below the Causse du Villard before reaching the "fortified" village. The return to Chanac, along the Lot, allows you to see the Château de Ressouches (private) along the way and offers the opportunity to visit the village at the end of the walk.
Nasbinals loop offering different landscapes of the Aubrac region
This hike follows the Way of St James to the village of Aubrac, crossing fields and offering superb views of the surrounding area. Depending on the season, you may encounter numerous cows, flowers everywhere, or even snow and fog.
