Things to see and do Mont Lozère And Goulet

Bordered by the Lot and the Allier to the north and the Tarn to the south, the Mont Lozère massif dominates the department to which it gave its name; the Tarn has its source there, while the other two rivers find their source a little further north. This granite mass, with its gentle shapes, culminates at the summit of Finiels, at an altitude of 1,699 m. The massif, located in the heart of the Cévennes National Park, is home to a particularly rich fauna and flora. Cattle are an integral part of the pasture landscape, as are the wild boars, deer and roe deer that live in the forests. Frogs and insectivorous plants live in the peat bogs. The territory is indeed a wet and green ecosystem, with many small streams.

Mount Lozère has particularly harsh winters. Thus, if it opens its paths to hiking and discovery in all seasons, it is a privileged destination for ski lovers. A ski resort is located in the village of Le Bleymard, at an altitude of 1,700 metres, and offers downhill, cross-country, hiking, snowshoeing and sledging on a preserved area of human scale. The medieval town of La Garde-Guérin, the lake of Villefort and its many water activities (fishing, swimming, sailing), the Pic de Finiels, the granite gorges of the Chassezac, the Cham des Bondons which gathers 154 menhirs... are also among the must-see places to discover on the exceptional lands of the Mont Lozère.
