Saint-Germain-de-Calberte walks

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.

This hike is accessible to everyone, young and old, in the Plan de Fontmort massif. Part of the circular route is along the ridges with a view of Mont Aigoual, then descends to the refreshing Mimente before climbing back up the Chemin de Stevenson to Plan de Formont.

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.

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.

An easy loop between chestnut groves and pine forests offering panoramic views of the Gardon de Saint-Jean valley, as far as Mont Aigoual and Mont Lozère. Yellow markings.

Route starting from the Col de la Croix de Berthel in the heart of the southern Cévennes. A day hike without any major difficulties.

This lovely circular starting from Le Pompidou takes you through three different types of landscape: schist, granite and limestone. There are beautiful panoramic views at various points along the way. The varied vegetation consists of beech, ash, ferns and broom. You will also pass through fields of cereal crops, chestnut groves and pastures.

A lovely hike from Les Plantiers to the Saint-Marcel church in Fontfouillouse, passing through the hamlet of Monteils, the Col de l'Espinas and Faveyrolle.

Thirteenth and final stage of a complete journey on the Chemin de Stevenson between Le Puy-en-Velay and Alès. This stage may involve significant changes to the GR®70 signposting, as Stevenson actually stopped at Saint-Jean-du-Gard on his journey. This last stage therefore allows you to return to a town where there are more means of communication to the starting point of the journey, while discovering the last foothills of the Cévennes.

From the Peyraube tumulus, enter a landscape dating back to the Neolithic period and discover the Peyraube valat (a stream or torrent in the Cévennes language) and then the Vanmalle valat, immersing yourself in the Basses Cévennes and the maquis to end up in front of a Neolithic tomb, the Ron Traoucat (Roc Troué).

A short walk along the Luech, following an old irrigation canal. Return via the road. A few short steep sections mean that this walk is classified as moderate, despite the short distance.

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.

Set amid pastures and wooded hills covered with chestnut trees, this Cévennes getaway offers splendid views of the surrounding peaks and valleys.

A peaceful walk for the whole family along the Felgérolles irrigation channel to the Tarn bridge.

In the heart of the Cévennes, a circuit along paved slanting streets and forest tracks, discovering the farmhouses and hamlets of the Camisards.

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.

A 360° panorama of the Cévennes valleys and Mont Aigoual. Information panels are provided along the route.

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.

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.

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.

A circuit that goes upstream along the Gardon de Mialet from Mas Soubeyran and passing the beautiful village of Mialet. This itinerary allows you to follow the river closely, with its meadows and bridges, but also to explore the slopes of the valley and to discover the beautiful hamlet of Aïgladines.

A lovely loop through the woods with several viewpoints.

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.

A varied walk consisting of a challenging climb to discover the heights of Mialet and a more leisurely walk along the Gardon de Mialet. Along the way, you will discover hilltop hamlets, a temple, a dolmen and the famous Pont des Camisards bridge.

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.

For experienced hikers, here is a 40 km loop starting from Valleraugue and reaching Aigoual via the famous 4,000 steps. It descends to Lac du Bonheur near Camprieu, then climbs back up to Espérou and ends along the ridges facing Mont Aigoual, which you will have discovered a few hours earlier. This hike is not technically difficult but is very long with some steep sections and requires good stamina.

From Valleraugue, take the famous 4000-step trail that climbs up to the Mont-Aigoual observatory. To complete the loop, follow theGR®6for a long descent through the forest towards Aire de Côte, before finishing with a crossing of the chestnut grove above the hamlet of Berthezène.
