The Rochers de Trenze

Heading to Lozère and the Cévennes for a hike around the Rochers de Trenze.

Starting from Vialas, the ascent is gentle and steady, leading to the hamlet of Gourdouze. The path then follows the eponymous stream and runs along the Rochers de Trenze that overlook Vialas. The descent is a bit technical but very enjoyable, first among the broom bushes and then on a paved path under the chestnut trees.

A walk by the sea

I’m spending the end-of-year holidays with my family in Alès. We take the car towards the coast to enjoy the sea and walk between La Grande Motte and Port-Camargue.
