Hérault’s valley by The Aigoual Mountain

6 to 7 day hiking loop

This itinerary is for people who are already used to walking.
The route is between 500 to 1200 meters above sea level.
Highest point: Mount Aigoual (1570m)

Route in a loop, clearly visible in the lanscape. A large path runs along ridges on the transhumance drailles; wide paths taken by the flocks to reach the mountain.

Open landscapes where we discover the magnificent panorama of the Cevennes valleys.
Mountain vegetation on the Aigoual massif, forests, undergrowth of pines and beech trees.

Then we find on the foothills the opening of a wild space where scattered granite stones share the moors of broom and heather.

4H walk days 1, 4, 6, and 7, rest time not included.
4H 30 to 5H walk on days 3, and 5, rest time not included.
