This is the most arduous hike in the dedicated leaflet ( “cartoguide”), between the northern slopes of Mont Lozère and the southern slopes of the Goulet massif, where the river Lot has its springs. Magnificent and diverse scenery guaranteed !



The objective is to discover the spring of the river Lot, but that won’t stop you from finding out more about rye, the short-toed treecreeper, mushrooms or Robert Louis Stevenson.
