The flora is coming to life

In the heart of Mont-Lozère and Aubrac, daffodils herald the renewal of spring, whilst the Grands Causses are adorned with a vibrant poppy red. In Aubrac, picking daffodils has become a ritual, just as admiring the broom in Mont-Lozère and Margeride is. Our landscapes are transformed; every corner of our destinations promises an escape.

Let yourself be enchanted by these unspoilt landscapes, perfect for a hike, a photo shoot or a moment of pure contemplation.

As you wander through the Aubrac highlands, a stop at a buron is a must to share a plate of aligot whilst taking in the vast, open countryside – an unmissable experience.

Let yourself be tempted by the products from Marque de Lozère, which embody the expertise of local producers. Here, every flavour carries a little piece of the region within it, waiting to be discovered as you meet the locals and go on culinary adventures.
