GR®66 Tour of Mont Aigoual

Dominating the southern Cévennes, Mont Aigoual is a wild crossroads where history intertwines with unspoiled nature, traversed by the GR®66 long-distance hiking trail that circles it. This summit, famous for its meteorological observatory, offers landscapes of moorland and deep forests, shaped by a harsh climate with contrasting Mediterranean and mountain influences. The Aigoual forest, replanted in the 19th century through a remarkable reforestation effort, shelters a diverse fauna including deer, mouflons and a rich birdlife. The flora is exceptional, ranging from Atlantic heathland to beech forests and sub-Alpine meadows, with numerous endemic species of the Cévennes biosphere.
