Hiking

Le Malzieu-Ville is a medieval gem in the Lozère department. The fortified old town, with its towers, gates, and narrow streets, invites exploration. Situated on the banks of the Truyère River, it is a stop on the Way of St. James. The surrounding forests and plateaus offer wonderful hiking and nature experiences.
