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!
