Towards the Rochers de Trenze via Gourdouse to Vialas
A magnificent hike amid broom and granite boulders.
Beautiful descent between the ridge and the village of Vialas.
Superb ridge trail along the impressive Trenze rock face.
Large circular loop around the Luech
This is a challenging circular route with an elevation gain of over 1,000 metres, starting from Chamborigaud and climbing up to the Route des Crêtes, with superb views of the surrounding mountains, including the ruins of the old castle of Verfeuil, from the south of Mont Lozère to Mont Ventoux. There are various places between the points (7) and (15) that also offer beautiful views. From Vialas to Chamborigaud, you will come across numerous streams that flow into the Luech, which you will follow, with a superb spot that is ideal for a break or a swim, even if there are still 6 km to go to reach the starting point, with a steep hill to leave the Luech. But overall, it is a very beautiful route for lovers of good, challenging hikes.
Circular Rocher de Trenze starting from Génolhac
A very pretty walk, through trees at the bottom and broom at the top. Allow a good half day to a full day to complete the circuit. I recommend this walk to experienced walkers who are used to walking in the mountains.
Chemin des Vignes in Génolhac
A circular loop without difficulty, with panoramic views to enjoy with the family. The Chemin des Vignes follows an old route that was once used for terraced farming and then for exploiting the pine forest to support the mining galleries. The vines disappeared in the 1960s.
Le Jardin du Tomple
Starting from the village of Génolhac, the walk crosses the Col de l'Ancise and Col de la Banlève passes, heads towards the remarkable Tomple garden and crosses the Cévenol railway line, which still connects Clermont-Ferrand to Nîmes.
Loop south of Mont Lozère via Vialas
This beautiful loop allows you to discover the variety of landscapes in the south of Mont Lozère, including forests, pastures and granite hamlets on the plateau. There are superb views throughout the route. Some may find this hike challenging due to its length and elevation gain, but it offers magnificent views.
La Croix de Berthel and the Pont du Tarn
Route starting from the Col de la Croix de Berthel in the heart of the southern Cévennes. A day hike without any major difficulties.
Le gué d'Hiverne au départ d'Aujac
Une randonnée proposée par le Parc Naturel des Cévennes. Le sens de la randonnée a été inversé pour éviter une fin de parcours en forte côte, et très chaude.
Portes Castle and Peyrerol Tower, or the mining history of the Cévennes
The Château de Portes is nicknamed the "ship of the Cévennes" as it overlooked the old Regordane Way, which pilgrims and crusaders used on their way to the Holy Land.
Through the woods, this hike will introduce you to another, more recent past of the Cévennes: the mines, with the discovery of the Peyrerol tower and its inclined plane.
09/10/2023 Moderator's message: the route has been modified and shortened to avoid private sections between (3) and Le Tour.
Loop in the south of the Cévennes, from the Col de Portes to the banks of the Luech
This challenging loop starts at Col de Portes and descends to Peyremale via the beautiful medieval village of Le Puech. After Peyremale and Saint-Herm, the route climbs back up to higher ground, offering superb views of the meandering Luech river below, which you eventually reach and follow along the beautiful hamlet of Chareneuve, which seems cut off from the world.Follow the Luech to Martinet Neuf after Chambon. Take a path that climbs steeply to Dieusses. Towards the end of the climb, you can clearly see the Château de Portes on the other side of the Luech, which you will have to reach. You are now about halfway there.Descend towards Chamborigaud, with beautiful views of the viaduct, which the path passes under. After the Chamborigaud bridge, take the GR®700, which climbs up to the Col de Portes. This is the thousand-year-old Régordane path. Although it stays close to the road, which you cross in a few places, this road, which starts off as a road but later becomes a path, is very pleasant.
The Pic Cassini from the Mas de la Barque
Here too, in the Lozère region, a 360° summit bears the cartographer Cassini's famous name. Did he ever see, this cartographer, the map of this corner of Lozère? Perhaps not. On the other hand, this summit, which is easy to get to, offers a remarkable view, which can then be completed by a loop via the source of the Tarn river.
From Felgérolles to the Tarn bridge
A peaceful walk for the whole family along the Felgérolles irrigation channel to the Tarn bridge.
Sources du Tarn and Pic Cassini
This hike, entirely above 1,300 m, takes in three places of interest not far from Mont Lozère. The first part takes in a landscape of wild moorland and leads to the sources of the Tarn, where the thin trickle of water gushing out from under the dense grass scarcely hints at the majestic gorges some thirty kilometres downstream. The route continues with the ascent of the Pic Cassini, offering a 360° panorama of the highest order, before leading under the dense foliage of the Mont Lozère Forest and then the Bois du Commandeur to the Pont du Tarn. Pont du Tarn is a popular spot for hikers, inviting you to stop, rest and swim in the summer months. Finally, all that remains is to reach the hamlet of l'Hôpital along a beautiful path lined with dry stone walls, which has surely been used by herds for centuries.
Béal de Felgerolles and the Tarn from Frutgères
This is an easy hike that allows you to discover the different landscapes of Lozère, the Béal de Felgerolles, the Tarn and a few picturesque hamlets typical of Mont Lozère. It also offers beautiful views of the Cévennes landscape. The wooded sections make it particularly pleasant in hot weather.
Cassagnas - Saint-Étienne-Vallée-Française (Lébou)
Eleventh stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage includes significant changes to the GR®70 signposting. This stage lies in the heart of the Cévennes National Park.
Saint-Etienne-Vallée-Française (Lébou) - Mialet (Audibert)
Twelfth stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage may include significant changes to the GR®70 signposting. It passes through several valleys among the Gardon rivers.
Pont-de-Montvert - Florac
Ninth stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage features significant changes to the GR®70 signposting, taking an alternative route to the GR®70 for much of the way. This means that the stage is substantially shorter than the official route. This stage marks the entry of the Chemin de Stevenson into the Cévennes region.
The Paillère Valley
This is a long walk up the Paillère valley through the woods before fording the river. The climb back up to the Col de Rabusat ridge is easy, and the return via the GR® offers beautiful views of the Paillère valley to the west and the Cèze valley to the east.Use of the app is highly recommended.
The Col du Pré la Dame in a circular fashion from Villefort
This is a must-see pass in the Cévennes, reached by a 15 km climb with an average gradient of 7%, followed by a beautiful descent to Génolhac. The return journey involves a short climb towards Concoules, followed by a much easier section to Villefort.
Mont Lozère from Finiels
Mont Lozère rises to 1,699 metres, making it the highest point in the Cévennes. However, its geological nature sets it apart from the rest of the massif. This imposing granite wall closes off the schist valleys of the Cévennes and heralds the high plateaus of southern Auvergne. It also offers magnificent views of all the peaks of the southern Massif Central, as far as Mont Ventoux. Best explored in good weather.
