Églazines is an ancient troglodyte village located on the side of a cliff on a path which was the obligatory passage to reach the Causse de Sauveterre plateau from the valley.
Formerly the seat of a lordship (Gladinas, which later became Églazines), it was occupied until the middle of the 20th century and it now constitutes a real curiosity.

Hiking

Églazines is a small troglodyte hamlet, clinging to the cliffs of the Causse de Sauveterre, overlooking the Gorges du Tarn at more than 140 meters. All around the hamlet, you can still see the low walls which were used to retain the earth for terraced crops, in particular vines, which were one of the most important productions in the region. Access is only possible via a footpath from Liaucous. The hamlet was occupied until 1960: its last resident left it at the age of 80!
