Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon walks

Starting from the Causse du Larzac, you will discover the colossal rocks that dominate the Cernon valley, while approaching the old railway line several times, which today is used for tourist activities thanks to the rail bikes of Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon. You can explore the fortified Templar village of Sainte-Eulalie-de-Cernon and climb back up the other side of the valley.

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.

Starting from Larzac, crossing the Domaine de la Maison des Forestiers, visiting a prehistoric shelter, you will descend to the source of the Durzon, then climb back up through the Pas de la Mule forest. ⚠️20/10/2025: The Canalettes fault site is closed annually from 1 October to 30 November by municipal decree.

A beautiful and very varied hike. On the agenda are three caves, including the "illuminated" cave, a lavogne, a beautiful natural arch and the famous canalettes (or canoles). ⚠️20/10/2025: The Canalettes fault site is closed annually from 1 October to 30 November by municipal decree.

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.

Located on the south-western slope of the Larzac Plateau at an altitude of 530 m, the village of Saint-Beaulize is dominated by a cirque formed by high limestone cliffs (reaching 860 m) commonly known as molaires.

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.

Important: access to the Canalettes is prohibited from 1 October to 30 November 2025. This is a very interesting route, particularly in relation to the Canalettes site. These are two canoles, faults carved into the limestone of the causses due to erosion. These fractures are particularly deep at this location.This hike also takes you to the source of the Durzon, which takes the form of a resurgence. Similarly, the steep Pas de la Mule pass, although short, is another special feature of this circular.

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.

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.

The objectives of this hike are to reach Stream on foot from Cantobre as easily as possible, using as many paths as possible, to visit the village of Stream, and to return to Cantobre via the hills, in particular Roc Stream.

This is a short walk for the whole family, which also allows you to spot several starting points for longer hikes. You can enjoy a pleasant path, cross a meadow, and on the way back, climb a small hill to admire the restored mill. Final destination: a visit to the fortified village of La Couvertoirade, which is entirely pedestrianised.

With all due respect to its illustrious neighbour (the Montpellier-le-Vieux site), the Caoussou chaos is a ruiniform formation rich in concretions, certainly more modest but just as interesting to discover. A family walk with a gradient suitable for both young and old.

Starting from the charming village of La Roque-Sainte-Marguerite, this hike first leads to the remarkable Roquesaltes rock formations, highlighted by a discovery trail dotted with informative and fun signs suitable even for the youngest hikers. After exploring the magnificent Causse farm of the same name, the circuit continues on the Causse Noir and leads to the site of Montméjean, dominated by the ruins of its castle. A beautiful trail leads back to the village, where you can stop to discover the 12th-century Sainte-Marguerite d'Antobe Church before descending via a beautiful paved slanting street to the banks of the Dourbie, where a swim in the summer months is a refreshing and pleasant way to end the circuit.

You will need two vehicles for this journey from La Bouteille to Saint-André-de-Vézines.
