A beautiful hike along the edge of the Causse de Sauveterre, above the Tarn valley.
Hike modified on 17/05/2023. See practical information.
Author's note, July 2023: I redid this route (July 2023) and found it completely disrupted by a recent fire in the upper part of the route. A well-marked trail has been marked in yellow since this event. It deviates slightly from the original route in places but is easy to follow.

This hike offers some of the finest panoramic views from the ridges on both banks of the Jonte, taking you through the heart of the Causse Méjean and the Arcs de Saint-Pierre. It’s an alternative to the signposted routes, which each stay on a single bank, all in a circular route that can be completed in a long day!

Departure from Le Rozier (Lozère)
Perhaps the most beautiful walk along the Causse Méjean, which traditionally starts out from Le Rozier.
Here, by starting on the cliff top, there is less vertical drop, as you stay between 870 and 720m the whole way.
As well as breath-taking scenery, you can see vultures circling above you and even below you on the cliffs!

Thisthird stage of the Tour du Causse Méjean takes place entirely within the Gorges du Tarn.
