Yellow markings.
Around Saint-Georges-de-Luzençon
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.
The Chemin des Raspes
A beautiful hike starting from Ayssènes in the little-known Tarn region, culminating at the Notre-Dame-du-Désert chapel. Beautiful panoramic views of the Gorges du Tarn and the Lévézou hills.
Despite numerous shaded sections, avoid doing this hike in the heat of the day or in wet weather due to the significant elevation gain.
The Green Trail around Ségonac and La Barque
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.
Climb up to Caylus Rock and discover the Sorgue Valley
In fine weather, the views from Caylus Rock are superb. The walk ends with a tour of the town centre.
The ladder trail around Roquefort-sur-Soulzon
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.
The Saint-Affrique Dolmen Route
A lovely walk that presents no difficulties other than its length and a significant elevation gain. It takes you past six dolmens, including the two most impressive in the region. Passing through a succession of cultivated fields, forests and heaths, the route also takes you past the beautiful site of the Chapel of Saint-Martin de Boussac (ideal for a picnic) and the Rocher de Caylus, which overlooks the village of Saint-Affrique. In Saint-Affrique itself: the Pont Vieux, the cathedral, the old narrow streets...
Between the pillars of the Millau Viaduct
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.
Les Raspes du Tarn
This route alternates between climbs (sometimes steep...), descents (just as steep...!), narrow paths and tracks, and a bit of road too.
You pass through steep-sided valleys and very pretty hilltop villages, and most of the time you walk along a balcony-like path above the Tarn, a river with emerald-green waters (well, almost...).
From La Cadènéde to Les Aumières
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.
Tournemire and the cliffs of Larzac
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.
The Cirque de Tournemire and the Sentier des Échelles via Roquefort
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.
Boundoulaou viewpoint and Creissels waterfall
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.
With Monsieur Clapassou above Creissels
This route offers superb views of Millau and its viaduct. Leaving the valley, you reach the legendary Larzac Plateau.
Creissels Waterfalls, Tournal Mill and St-Martin Cirque
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.
Comberoumal Priory
This walk was created by the Pays de la Muse et des Raspes Tourist Office. A very pleasant walk, even in summer, as it is often in the shade. During the season, admire the splendid rosebushes in the streets of Saint-Beauzély.
Mont Seigne
The Haut Lévézou seen from the summit of Mont Seigne (1121m). You will have a 360° view of the Monts d'Aubrac, Mont Lozère, the Cévennes, the Causses, the Monts de l'Espinouse... To get there, take the district roads and dirt tracks used by farmers and foresters. At the summit, an orientation table will give you all the information you need on a 360° view.
The Abbé Coste trail
Built during the time of the Hospitallers, the granary tower of Viala-du-Pas-de-Jaux is the starting point for this circular loop through a sumptuous agropastoral landscape. Formed by karst erosion, the cirque of Saint-Paul-des-Fonts, village of the botanist Hippolyte Coste to whom an area is dedicated, offers a breathtaking spectacle.
On the paths of the women of the earth, starting from Viala du Dourdou.
In the heart of the Rougier, the village of Viala du Dourdou, in a dominant position, offers easy hiking and surprising views in the Grands Causses Regional Natural Park.
To the Sources du Vioulou from Curan
A Gothic church, a stone water tower and numerous views of the wooded mountains await you on this easy route.
The Baraque du Cantonier in Salles-Curan
This hike starts along a shaded stream, climbs to the Lévézou plateaus with their unobstructed views, and ends in the woods.
