The Saint-Guiral

Such a panorama is well worth the effort! This long loop invites you to gain altitude and crosses valleys, streams, forests, moors and hamlets.
The short final climb is reminiscent of the great peaks... Difficult trail for experienced hikers.

This trail begins in the village of Dourbies, located in the Dourbies Valley, a granite valley, just like this hike. We find ourselves in the typical landscape of a granite massif: erratic boulders, sweeping landscapes, and magnificent beech forests. The panoramas are exceptional.
