    Hiking

    Unlike the Burons, which also served as a living space for cowherds and cheese dairies, the Béledat du Cassaïre (at an altitude of 1600m on the GR400) was only used to shelter sick animals and the herd during bad weather. A buron located a few dozen meters away therefore fulfilled its function for the cowherd. Part of the pastoral heritage and dating from the 18th century, it has recently been restored.

    A Béledat was used to shelter calves and sick animals. This was restored in 2020 with the help of local craftsmen. The origin of the site would be from the 18th century. It measures 11 x 4.5 meters, with walls one meter sixty thick. All covered in Lauze.
