From Millau to Le Rozier - 24km - 700 m d+ :
As a warm up: the avenue of Millau beach. We quickly gain altitude by crossing the hamlet of Carbassas and then dominating the village of Paulhe. This is followed by a passage along the ledges on the left bank of the Tarn to La Cresse. The ascent is done via a ravine which leads to the plateau of the Causse Noir and rather wide tracks until the farm of La Tour which we bypass by the west to go for a superb descent on the side of the causse until the pretty villages of Peyreleau and Rozier.
From Le Rozier to Revens - 38km - 1380 m d+ :
Whether we are in Peyreleau or Le Rozier, we are at the river, so we have to go up via a single that leads us to the prehistoric Champignon, then to the Hermitage Saint Michel. We leave the ledges to reach Veyreau then a crossing of the Causse towards Saint André de Vezines. Descent into the Dourbie by the flanks of the Causse Noir and crossing of two splendid hamlets that are Montméjean and Saint-Véran. Back on the plateau for a last difficulty before the stop in Gard.
From Revens to Montredon - 25km - 937 m d+ :
Departure from Revens and already we leave the Gard, to go down to the exceptional village of Cantobre perched on its rock. Then it's a long ascent to the heights of Nant before descending, where a halt is more than recommended. The Ravin de Vallongue brings us to the Larzac, it is also the GR 71D that we follow via the cornices of the Dourbie before joining Montredon, via the plateau.
From Montredon to Millau - 36km - 1165 m d+ :
Back to business without much difficulty with a relatively flat section, a crossing of Pierrefiche and then the return of technicality with the descent of Pompidou. A quick passage to the Dourbie then an ascent to the Mas de Bru that we cross to find the Roubelier ravine. We cross the Dourbie for the last difficulty and a climb on the Causse Noir, passing the Cades farm before finishing with a technical descent.
