This circuit rises to offer very beautiful escapades on the surroundings, but also on the distant: the thing of Fortunio, the mount Lozère, the mount Gerbier de Jonc 



A section of the tour is made on a path in the heath to callune and blueberries.

  1. Walk up a street facing the parking lot between an agricultural building and a house. At the level of another farm building, continue to the right on the wide track.

  2. In a bend (stone cross; view towards Grandrieu and, in the distance, on the Devès, the telecommunication tower), go up strongly along the way. Crossing several fences.

  3. At the level of a holding pen for cattle, open a fence to the right of this pen (close it again) and rise. For more than 1.5 km, the route is limited to a path in the heather, between barbed wire. Reach a crossroads of tracks (view on the Devès and the massif du Mézenc).

  4. Take the second track from the left, which is the widest (view of the Fortunio thing, Mount Lozère). Continue straight ahead until you reach a perpendicular track.

  5. Follow it to the left and then straight ahead (cross of Bessière; wide view on the Devès, the Mézenc, the mount Gerbier de Jonc). Go down, cross the stream (old mill) and go up towards the village. Cross it (ordinary oven) and reach the church (with granite gisant and, from the cemetery, stone staircase rising into the bell tower).
