A magnificent hike to enjoy in all seasons, accompanied by the sound of the Léoux waterfalls, the flight of vultures and impressive landscapes.

The Léoux stream from Saint-May
This hike follows the beautiful Léoux stream. Littered with natural pools, it offers beautiful places to cool off. The slopes quickly converge to form beautiful rocky gorges. You then leave the gorges on the western slope via a fairly steep stony path.
