Explore a grand and varied landscape ranging from open pastureland to thick forests along this large and little frequented loop, which crosses the Goulet massif and has panoramic views onto Mont Lozère.



Discover the spring of the river Lot, located in a zone of peatbogs at an altitude of around 1 300m. Cross the characterful hamlet of Les Alpiers, where the writer Stevenson and his she-donkey Modestine walked.
