Maurines walks

Route through rolling countryside with views of the Lanau dam. Magnificent houses in Orcières.

Starting from Loubaresse, near an exit from the A75 motorway, this route follows the GR® de Pays circular Boucle de la Truyère and a variant that "turns" around the Truyère river to the village of Chaliers, which is well worth taking the time to explore. The route takes small local roads on both the left and right banks of this river with its wild gorges, crossing it twice via footbridges at Valadour and Terran. The actual duration of the route is 4 hours and 40 minutes (GPS watch data), including a short stop in Chaliers.

Take a break from the A75 for a pleasant and informative stop!

A superb hike, mostly through woods, to discover the wild and little-known Truyère gorges. Suitable for experienced walkers only due to the distance and elevation gain.

Passing through Auvergne? Take the opportunity to enjoy a pleasant break in Saint-Flour. From the banks of the Anver, climb up to discover the upper town via the Chemin des Chèvres and don't forget to stock up on cheese!

Starting from Saint-Flour, this tour of the northern part of the Planèze de Saint-Flour allows you to appreciate the diversity of the landscapes of this high basalt plateau in just three days of walking. The stages in Paulhac and Valuéjols offer accommodation in stopover lodges. The route follows part of a variant of the GR® de Pays de Saint-Flour and part of the GR®4.

This is the first of three stages of the Saint-Flour Planèze tour. It is the longest stage, passing through several small villages typical of the Planèze with their bread ovens, which provide welcome shelter for a short break in rainy weather. The very quiet paths and small roads run alongside meadows grazed by numerous herds of cattle in season.

A lovely walk with very little elevation gain, mainly on good paths, alternating views of the Aubrac plateau, pine-covered meadows and light woods.

This is the fourth and final stage of a four-day tour of the Aubrac region. You will follow part of the Compostela Way (GR®65) in the opposite direction and part of the GRP® Tour des Monts d'Aubrac. This stage has the most sections along roads (with little traffic).

Come and discover the magnificent Aubrac plateau from Saint-Urcize, classified as a "petite cité de caractère" (small town of character), with its granite houses and beautiful Romanesque church. You're sure to enjoy this varied hike: you'll walk high up in the summer pastures, then descend to the paths of the Saint-Urcize forest and finish by following the Hère river, which will reveal its waterfalls.Avoid this hike in very hot weather!

Discovery hike around Paulhac, very easy and ideal for those new to mountain biking, especially children. It is also accessible to pedestrians, horses and even people with all-terrain pushchairs (3 wheels).

Second stage of the Saint-Flour Planèze tour. This is the shortest and highest stage. It takes place in the foothills of the Plomb du Cantal and crosses the wildest parts of the circuit.

Hike across the vast plateaus of Aubrac, from Saint-Urcize to Dômerie d'Aubrac. Allow a good six hours to complete the circular hike, but it is best to set off early if you want to fully enjoy the magnificent, unspoilt landscapes that await you.

Circuit no. 1 in the guidebook of walking, horse riding and mountain biking routes in the commune of Paulhac.

An easy hike offering beautiful views of Nasbinals and the surrounding pastures.

A short, gentle walk with views of the surrounding mountains and the Monts du Cantal. This walk follows a forest track through the woods. It is accessible on foot, by mountain bike and on snowshoes.

The first stage of the 5-day Tour de l'Aubrac, this hike already offers a good glimpse of the magnificent landscapes of the Aubrac: fields, woods, hills, beautiful granite-stone houses, crosses at almost every crossroads, and of course, the proud Aubrac cows.

The Aubrac is a granite plateau partly covered in basalt. A vast grazing area for the famous Aubrac cattle, it is criss-crossed by numerous paths, the most famous of which is the Way of St James, the Via Podensis starting from Le Puy-en-Velay. This short five-day Tour of the Monts d'Aubrac allows you to explore the southern half, passing through iconic locations such as Aumont-Aubrac, Prinsuéjols, Les Rajas, Saint-Chely-d'Aubrac, Aubrac, and Nasbinals.

This second, long stage, which is partly shaded, ends at Buron des Rajas, at the foot of Signal de Mailhebiau, the highest point in Aveyron, in a vast, wild desert landscape.

Twentieth stage of the Camino de Santiago. For this stage, leave the Margeride for the Aubrac. You’ll realise you’re in the Aubrac when the trees disappear – and it’s absolutely stunning! The colours, the landscapes, the cows, the silence, the sky, the rocks. You’ll feel tiny in the face of nature’s immensity.

A hike mainly through forest, offering access to two superb viewpoints over the vast Aubrac plateau.

Third and final stage of the Planèze tour. Entirely on the GR®4. This stage crosses varied environments and allows you to discover some very interesting, albeit little-known, sites. In particular, the route runs alongside the Narse de Nouvialle (a remarkable wetland) and passes close to the Château du Sailhant and the Babory waterfall.

A circular in the heights of the Ruisseau de la Nuech valley, crossing summer pastures and some undergrowth, a short visit to the centre of Laguiole, and finally, a short loop along the Ruisseau du Vayssaire and an arboretum, to discover the beautiful Cascade de l'Oule waterfall.GRP®® or Visorando app useful on one section
