Recommended period :
The Grand Tour des Monts et Lacs du Lévézou is a medium mountain itinerary at an altitude between 700 m and 1,150 m.
There are no difficulties with this route. Spring (April - May - June) and autumn (September - October) are the most favourable periods to hike from lake to lake or on the high plateaus which offer quite exceptional views. However, the summer period is not discouraged because many parts of the route take very pleasant forest trails, very shady.
