Saint-Georges-de-Luzençon walks

Starting from Saint-Georges-de-Luzençon, a two-part hike. The first section follows the Cernon and climbs up to Luzençon (beautiful view). The second climbs eastwards via the church to the Cathedral.

From the banks of the Cernon to the hilltop at Luzençon, an idyllic walk crowned by an exceptional 360° view of the Millau Viaduct, the village of Saint-Georges, the Larzac and the Lévézou mountains Luzençon, built on a hilltop opposite the village of Saint-Georges, is – with its12th-century castle chapel and magnificent panorama – the highlight of this refreshing, countryside walk. The walk passes through two other hamlets, Linas and Crayssaguet, and reveals all the charm of the Cernon Valley, a left-bank tributary of the Tarn

Just a few minutes from Millau, this walk combines superb landscapes, the viaduct, the village of Peyre (listed as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages in France") and a bucolic little path along the Tarn.

Who has never dreamed, like Icarus, of seeing the world from above... More prosaically, this walk will take us between the legs of the smallest pier of the viaduct. A quick glance at the chapel of Brocuéjouls, another at a double chamber dolmen, not to mention the exceptional panorama of the Tarn valley below. In short, a family-friendly route with a moderate elevation gain. Enjoy your walk.

A family walk that takes you along the edge of the Causse plateau. Keep one eye on the Millau Viaduct and the other on the magnificent fortified farm of La Cadénède. You’ll cross a ‘bouissière’ and take a well-deserved rest by the stone-built fountain at Les Aumières Basses.

A loop passing by the Creissels waterfalls, with return trips to enjoy the heights of the Causse du Larzac and the viewpoint overlooking the Millau Viaduct and the Cirque du Boundoulaou.

This route offers superb views of Millau and its viaduct. Leaving the valley, you reach the legendary Larzac Plateau.

Starting from Creissels, there is a combination of marked trails, created on the initiative of the Millau Grands Causses Community of Communes, allowing you to discover the area by following in the footsteps of Mr Clapassou. (Symbolic iron signpost in the shape of a pile of stones) Don't miss the Creissels waterfalls, the Moulin de Tournal mill and the Cirque de St-Martin (or Cirque du Boundoulaou). At the end of the route, you can visit the lower, very pretty part of the village, right on the banks of the Tarn.

Discover an ancient silver mining village and troglodyte dwellings. This walk immerses us in history and heritage. Take the time to make a detour to the hamlet of Le Minier, which was once famous for its silver mines. Yellow markings.

This walk offers an original perspective on the Roquefort region from above, between Lévézou, the Tournemire cirque, an old sheepfold and the Larzac plateau. The final section passes close to the Roquefort caves and crosses the village's main street to return to the starting point.

A hike on the outskirts of Millau, comprising two distinct sections, both in terms of the natural environment and the level of difficulty. The first section takes you through the Causse Noir National Forest. The descent through the Ravin du Monna then leads to the cliff-top path, which allows you to walk along the cliffs of the Dourbie valley for a long stretch, downstream from the gorges. The views are beautiful, but the path requires great caution throughout. The end of the route allows you to make a leisurely return to the Puncho d’Agast viewpoint, from where the world-renowned engineering masterpiece that is the Millau motorway viaduct is revealed, with its remarkable elegance and lightness. A fine conclusion to the route.(!) Please take full note of the advice given in the section: Practical Information.

A beautiful hike on the Causse du Larzac to admire the Cirque du Brias, commonly known as the Cirque de Tournemire. It is surrounded by one of the most beautiful cliffs on the western edge of the Larzac, from the top of which you can enjoy a vast panorama. The best time to visit is May/June to admire all the flowers on the causse. Continue towards Viala-du-Pas-de-Jaux with its magnificent restored hospital tower.

This route, which circles the Soulzon valley, will take you to two legendary sites: - the Cirque de Tournemire and its spectacular cliffs. - the Combalou plateau, whose underground chambers house the famous Roquefort caves. The trail winds its way through cliffs, ledges and rocky outcrops, offering impressive views. Between the two, there is a truly unique route around the Roquesquatres mountain and a short passage through the woods along the Soulzon.

A beautiful climb up the Causse Noir starting from Pauhle, a pretty village where you must visit the Maison de la Cerise. A second short circular loop, if you have time, allows you to visit the lower parts of the commune but does not provide access to the Tarn, which is a shame.

Visit the pretty medieval village of Compeyre and take a walk in the hills around Puech de Luzergue, passing by the châteaux of Cabrières and Lugagnac. The route is mainly on paths and small roads.Please note: it is best to do this hike at the weekend as the tracks may be used by vehicles and the quarry is very close by.
