Landscapes of Lake Salagou
The artificial lake of Lac de Salagou has created an attraction that goes far beyond water sports and bathing. Geology, pastoralism, old villages, drystone shelters and vineyards complete the appeal of this region, which returns to peace and quiet at the end of summer.
Auverne plateau from Vailhés
At the edge of Lake Salagou, there are beautiful views of the lake, first between the red cliffs and the blue waters of the lake, then from the balcony at the edge of the Auverne plateau.
Tour of Lake Salagou

The local road from Lieude to Causse de Carlencas
Having found traces of this local road No. 13 on the 1827 land registry, I went in search of it. It starts at La Lieude and climbs up through the Las Moles valley.
This hike is reserved for experienced hikers who are familiar with the terrain and enjoy getting off the beaten track.
The path is not always easy to follow in the ruffes (red earth).
Return via Mas Bousquet and Mas Valos le Vieux and Valos le Bas.
No markings - GPS very useful.
