Hike on the Causse Méjean and in the Cevennes
Hike throughout steppes...
3 days / 3 nights
The wide steppes of the Causse Mejean offer typical landscapes such as natural grassland which have always been appropriated to develop sheep breeding either for meat or for the milk. The milk is intended to produce Roquefort cheese. . During this itinerant hike through these hilly areas, geological curiosities await you: dolines where cultures concentrate, caves or enigmatic dolomitic ruins. You will also be able to appreciate the flora of an extraordinary diversity, the fawn vulture in search of a carcass of sheep or the horse of Przewalski...

L'avis des voyageurs
Bonsoir
J'ai passé un séjour formidable.Tout a été parfait : l'accueil,les repas, le circuit proposé, l'organisation. C'était de belles étapes avec beaucoup de variété de paysage et de flore .
Le seul bémol mais personne n'y peut quelquechose était une météo maussade qui a empêché de profiter des panoramas.
Le séjour a tout à fait correspondu a mes attentes , voire plus
Merci pour tous
Gérard
Notre séjour a été vraiment super, les hébergements de qualité et l'accueil toujours assorti d'une grande gentillesse
(écoute, conseils...).
A l'auberge sur le causse, très bon accueil et la découverte gastronomique très alléchante (c'est sûr au milieu de nulle part, c'est une adresse à ne pas manquer).
Nous avons randonné selon votre guide qui est aussi très bien élaboré.
Nous avons rencontré des tas de gens différents dans les gîtes autour du repas du soir et çà j'adore.
Bonne continuation à vous et encore grand merci pour cette semaine de découverte et de détente."
Mireille et son fils Sébastien
