Menhir

Super easy hike

This path in the middle of the countryside is lined with several dolmens and menhirs. These megalithic sites bear witness to ancient funerary practices.

This easy path is lined with trees and dotted with dolmens. The bucolic setting is very calming, perfect for a relaxed hike.

The Menhir de la Pierre des trois parishes is the most majestic of the menhirs in the area. It refers to the junction point between the communes of Bondons, Ispagnac and Saint-Etienne-du-Valdonnez. The origin of the menhirs still remains very mysterious.

The Roc des Laubies, with its rocky chaos, offers a magnificent promontory to admire the Cévennes.

The Roc des Chiens Fous, topped with its granite chaos, owes its name to a local legend according to which the dogs of a shepherd would have found refuge here during a winter but would have gone mad. In any case, it offers a magnificent view with postcard landscapes.

The bell towers of Tourmente are emblematic buildings on Mont Lozère. Although they are no longer in use, they have saved many lives since they rang night and day during bad weather, allowing travelers to find their way around. This was particularly the case in fog or blizzard weather (called storms). These bell towers gradually took on a religious character, as evidenced by the cross crowning that of La Fage.
