Vic-le-Fesq walks

Hike from the small village of Vic-le-Fesc, which will take you to the Vidourle River via the picturesque site of Notre-Dame de Prime Combe with its giant statues, Stations of the Cross and open chapel.

This hike will take you through the hills around Montmirat in the Courme Valley to the ridges of the Lens woods and the promontory of the church of Jouffre (also spelled Jouffe).

A hike mostly through forest, under the canopy of the Bois de Lens. Throughout the walk you'll experience stunning scenery. You'll also discover the Pielles Roman quarry, Macassargues caves (which were occupied by Neanderthal man), the pre-Roman sanctuary of Mabousquet (1st century BC), the Clunisian abbey of Jouffre (3rd century) and the Castellas de Montmirat (11th century).

Mills, fords and wells punctuate this hike along the Vidourle, illustrating the importance of water and its use.

Enjoy a pleasant family walk along the Vidourle river to discover two mills with their fords and two magnificent water wheels, one of which has a wash house, which once punctuated the rhythm of life in days gone by.

In the heathland hinterland between Sommières and Quissac, this wild, wooded hill dominates the Vidourle valley and offers a beautiful view to the south, all the way to the sea.

A very pleasant hike in the Bois de Paris through heath and holm oak trees to beautiful viewpoints over the Cévennes.

Circular mountain bike route from Quissac to admire some of the restored structures on the greenway from Quissac to Sumène. Tunnels and viaduct between Sumène and Ganges and the Saint-Hyppolite-du-Fort viaduct. Note the beautiful structure with its segmental arch at the entrance to Sumène.

A tour to discover the rich history of the Vidourle Valley: castles, old farmhouses, fountains and wash houses. A few sections on paved roads make this walk accessible to all.

A pleasant, easy hike. Mostly on paths, sometimes on small roads. Landscapes of garrigue, vines and woods. Several mills line the route. You must make a short round trip to the Vidourle to admire them and enjoy the river's restful calm (on this day!!).

This hike is inseparable from the history of the Vidourle, the river that has shaped the life and landscapes of the region. You will come across mills and cross ancient passes.

A short walk in a rural setting alternating between undergrowth and viewpoints. You will discover its wild heath, which has always been used by man for food crops and sheep grazing, and oak wood for the production of charcoal and glassware.

Amid hills and valleys, a bull ranch (manade) under the pine trees, abandoned quarries, and quaint villages with narrow, shady lanes. A wonderful glimpse of the Gard.

A hike in the heart of the heath with panoramic views of the sea, Pic Saint-Loup, the Cévennes and Mont Lozère In April, the path between (3) and (5) is lined with dwarf irises, asphodels and beautiful wild orchids!

Through the heath and pine forest, a lovely tour of the village to discover different viewpoints.

Magnificent view from the Roc de Gachone and the Tour de Guet (the Ventoux, the Pic Saint-Loup, the Hortus, the coastline).
