Pic-Saint-Loup, the legendary peak in the Montpellier hinterland. Here, I suggest approaching it from the east via Saint-Mathieu-de-Tréviers. This shaded, less frequented route through the woods takes you past the ruined castle of Montferrand. At the summit, you can enjoy views of the Alps, the Pyrenees, Mont Ventoux, the Cévennes and the Mediterranean.

⚑Departure from Saint-Mathieu-de-Tréviers (Hérault)
Pic Saint-Loup is a classic spot with a superb panorama: on one side, the view stretches as far as Mont Aigoual, which rises above the Cévennes, and on the other, the plain stretches to the blue Mediterranean. Starting from Saint-Mathieu-de-Tréviers, this route begins in the opposite direction, allowing you to enjoy more peace and quiet and follow the sun's path. Some sections are vertiginous, see reviews

A beautiful hike with no difficulty except for the distance, with superb views of the Hortus, the Pic Saint-Loup and, above all, Lac de Cécélés at the start. The hike is classified as moderate because of the first descent into the forest, or rather into a stream bed, followed by a short climb after the point (6).
