Sentier d'exploration "Sur le toit du Larzac"
Leaving from the Domaine de Gaillac, set off to discover the Serre de la Lavande on the Larzac plateau, following a trail dotted with heritage and nature interpretation panels.
The easy orange route (6km) is an invitation to discover emblematic landscapes and natural treasures. As you hike along, you'll come across such remarkable sites as a buissière, a Roman well that bears witness to a thousand years of history, and the basalt flow.
The Puech des Fourches and the ridge line offer exceptional panoramic views over the valley. The climax of this adventure is the Serre de la Lavande, the highest point of the Larzac at 926 metres, offering a breathtaking panorama stretching from southern Larzac to Lévezou, via the foothills of the Cévennes.
For the more adventurous, the difficult purple route (10km) extends the experience through steeper landscapes. You'll discover an ancient cave bâtarde, a mysterious construction bearing witness to local history, as well as an aven and a lavogne, typical geological formations of the Causses.
