The Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert trail
48210 GORGES DU TARN CAUSSES
From Antiquity onwards, this trail was used as a drovers’ road and trade route to link the Aubrac uplands to the garrigues (arid shrubland) of the Languedoc. It leads past a stunning variety of architecture and landscapes. Hikers or pilgrims coming from the plateaux to the gorges, from the Aigoual massif to the Cirque de Navacelles, will complete their long journey in the picturesque village which gave the trail its name!
