Donkey's Footpath

Come and discover the landscape of Pas de l'Ane, the Château d'Espinassous, think that the beaver and the otter are very close, look for the large-fruited alyssum, understand the Scots pine.

It's a cliffside path just the way we like them, offering a panoramic view above the Trévezel gorges. This torrent has taken advantage of a fault line to carve deep gorges into the limestone plateau.
A superb hike where you'll discover the limestone plateau of the Causse Noir, descending via a magnificent path built in Roman times and maintained by subsequent generations. From the Trévezel valley, you'll find yourself immersed in a dense, virgin forest where boxwood and vines are part of this tropical landscape! A very difficult section for 2 km. A relief when you reach the hamlet of Villaret and a bit of warmth!
