GR®62A

From Combescure Ravine (Aveyron) to Meyrueis (Lozere)

The GR62A trail offers a wild immersion into the heart of the Cévennes National Park. The landscape is marked by the striking contrast between the arid limestone plateaus and the cool Cévennes valleys. Historically, this trail follows ancient transhumance routes, where sheep farming still dominates, shaping the lives of the few inhabitants deeply attached to their land. The built heritage is revealed through traditional sheepfolds (vaulted sheepfolds) and dry-stone hamlets, testaments to centuries of adaptation to a harsh climate. As for biodiversity, hikers can observe the majestic flight of griffon vultures above the cliffs, while the flora is adorned with wild orchids and carline thistles.
