Lozère on horseback

Cavaler: ‘horses’ galloping in the wind in Lozère
What? You love horse riding and you’ve never set foot in Lozère?
We’ll have to do something about this situation – and quickly! Because Lozère has always been a friend to horses.
Here, they find trails stretching as far as the eye can see, where they can let their hooves ring out. It’s certainly far more fun than riding on the road. For riders, it’s the very essence of freedom. The paths criss-cross and intertwine, offering a wealth of new opportunities at every junction.
Climb the ridges of Mont-Lozère? Ride around the Aubrac? Gallop between the rivers and castles of the Margeride? Cross the Grands Causses, like a modern-day Genghis Khan? Whichever option you choose, come evening and nightfall, accommodation will be comfortable – for both riders and horses alike. After all, we mustn’t forget the old saying: ‘If you want to go far, look after your mount’!
It’s well worth a visit!
With its sun-bleached grasses and a population density of 1.4 inhabitants per square kilometre, the Causse Méjean has the feel of the Mongolian steppe. You can even find horses here that have come straight from that Asian country – the last of their kind never to have been domesticated by humans. Grab your binoculars to spot the Przewalski’s horses!
Horse riding treks
In Lozère, horse riding is much more than just an outdoor activity: it is a total immersion in unspoilt, vast and wild landscapes, where time seems to slow down. A land of wide open spaces and traditions, Lozère is best explored on horseback, at a leisurely pace along the trails that wind through plateaus, gorges, forests and valleys.
