From the village of Cayrol, on the edge of the Aubrac plateau, this hike takes us back to the deep gorges of a boralde where the Cistercian Abbey of Bonneval nestles in a solitary and peaceful spot conducive to contemplation.

Through the forest, discover an ancient wolf pit and the Devèz waterfall. You'll then pass through a mountain pasture with a view towards Rodez.
The Roman road in Saint-Chély-d'Aubrac
A very pleasant hike, starting in the shade of hazelnut and ash trees. Then, on the Roman road, you will encounter the beautiful Aubrac cows (in season) with superb views of the Lot valley. Saint-Chély-d'Aubrac is a stop on the Way of St James and its bridge is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the title "Routes of Santiago de Compostela in France".
One-day pilgrim on the Aubrac
A day on the majestic Aubrac plateau with its drovers' roads and pastures.This circuit can be combined with the Aubrac-Nasbinals round trip (published on Visorando), allowing you to create a two-day hike with an overnight stay in Nasbinals.
The path of the two churches of Coubisou and Vinnac
Highly contrasting landscapes, from wooded valleys to green hills, traditional farms to replanted terraces. This hike tells a rich story, linking two well-preserved Romanesque churches.
Roc de Carbonade and Croix des Goutals
A hike mainly through forest, offering access to two superb viewpoints over the vast Aubrac plateau.
Aubrac - Nasbinals
If you want to get a taste of the pilgrim's life, this circuit is for you. It is a short round trip that can be done on its own.
Combined with the One-Day Pilgrim's Tour of Aubrac (published on Visorando), it can be turned into a two-day hike with an overnight stay in Nasbinals.
La Boralde de Flaujac
Take a very old path from the village of Flaujac, clinging to the slopes of the Boralde, and climb up to the plateau through woods and terraces.
The Old Vineyards of Saint Côme d'Olt
A contrasting hike through lush meadows and rich farmland on the plain or along the slopes, once covered with vineyards, with the medieval town of Saint-Côme-d'Olt in sight.
The Railway Way
Following the old railway line, which has been converted into a hiking trail, imagine what it was like when it was built a century ago (1905).
La Chastelle loop in Saint-Urcize
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!
The Chapels and Vineyards of Estaing
An interesting hike overlooking the Lot valley, the village and the Estaing valley, discovering two authentic chapels.
From Estaing to Massip on the Way of St James
This is a stage of the Way of St James starting from the pretty village of Estaing. I recommend visiting this magnificent village and its castle. You can also enjoy a drink by the Lot river. A plaque in memory of President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing can be found at the entrance to the village. This stage is moderately difficult with a lot of road and some elevation gain, so bring something to drink and protection from the sun.
The Two Valleys Circuit, Coussane and Lot
Magnificent panoramic views of the thousand-year-old town of Estaing and views of the wild Coussane valley and the Lot valley.
