Viala-du-Pas-de-Jaux walks

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.

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.

Starting from Larzac, crossing the Domaine de la Maison des Forestiers and visiting a prehistoric shelter, you will descend to the source of the Durzon, then climb back up through the Pas de la Mule forest.

A beautiful and very varied hike. The route includes three caves, including the "illuminated" cave, a sinkhole, a beautiful natural arch and the famous canals (or canoles).

Through a coniferous forest, we discover the Russian Orthodox Chapel nestled in the heart of the woods, in an idyllic green setting. Time to pause and meditate on this magical place. Superb views. The trail is mainly woodland, which is pleasant in hot weather.

This is a very interesting route, particularly around the Canalettes site. These are two canoles, faults carved into the limestone of the causses by erosion. These fractures are particularly deep at this point. This hike also reveals the source of the Durzon, which appears as a resurgence. Similarly, the steep passage of the Pas de la Mule, although short, is another special feature of this loop.

Pleasant walk starting from the centre of Camarès (you can also start from the leisure centre car park) along the Dourdou river, passing through Camarès "Ville haute" (upper town), the ruins of the old fortified town, the castle currently being restored, the rose garden, and enjoy the panoramic view from the old bell tower.

This hike starts in Roqueredonde and takes you to the Orb river and the Tibetan Buddhist temple Lerab Ling, where you can take a short meditation break. The route then enters the Escandorgue National Forest, where the charm of the forest paths contrasts with the chaotic dolomitic landscape of the Causse. Finally, the route follows ancient paths worn by passing flocks of sheep.

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.

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.

A beautiful walk, without major difficulty and well marked, that takes you through scrubland and forests, cliffs and limestone plateaus.

Hike in the hills above the Tarn Valley, around the medieval castle of Peyrelade.

A hike in a pleasant valley with plenty of water and the Pas de l'Escalette, a spot steeped in history. The return via the plateau offers a wide view of the surrounding area. Moderator update on 27/01/2021: some of the paths used in this itinerary have disappeared. However, there is a yellow-marked trail on site. See the reviews from January 2021.

In a limestone circus setting, this circuit climbs to the foot of the cliffs, offering views of the Lodève countryside. After a refreshing stop in the hamlet of Labeil and its converted cave, it continues on the plateau, enters a dark forest, then crosses the limestone plateau amid a chaotic rock formation.

A very beautiful hike along the Jonte Gorges on the ledges of the Causse Noir. Remains of the Saint-Michel hermitage. Close to vultures.

Perhaps the most beautiful walk along the Causse Méjean, which traditionally starts out from Le Rozier. Here, by starting on the cliff top, there is less vertical drop, as you stay between 870 and 720m the whole way. As well as breath-taking scenery, you can see vultures circling above you and even below you on the cliffs!

A beautiful, challenging circular hike with breathtaking views. The view from the Cinglegros rock is fantastic, but access is reserved for those who do not suffer from vertigo.

A very pretty loop that allows you to discover the Gorges du Tarn and then the Gorges de la Jonte. After the climb to Rocher de Capluc, the arrival at the viewpoint offers a magnificent view of the Tarn Gorges and Le Rozier. The route is a bit challenging but the views are sublime. The elevation gain is actually 650 m and the distance is 12 km.

A walk to discover vultures in the cliffs of the Jonte. Please note that the elevation gain calculated automatically by the app is incorrect; it is only about 600 m.

In Soubès, follow the signs to the hikers' car park near the Impasse des Garennes retirement home. Then simply follow the yellow markings, passing through the botanical trail and then the old salt road, which leads to the foothills of the Larzac. This walk offers breathtaking views of the Cirque du Bout du Monde before returning to our starting point via the Camin Farrat.
