Lozère Ride


Lozère Ride
Auvergne France

Ride through the wonderful Unesco World Heritage Site of the Cévennes. 

We go from Lozère to Gard, following the footsteps of the novelist Robert Louis Stevenson. You will also ride the famous Lozériaux cattle paths, still used by the shepherds and their ewes during their transhumance, but also part of the mythical endurance Equestrian event of the 160km of Florac!
During this extraordinary fast riding tour through the spectacular mountain scenery of the Cévennes you will discover several famous sights such as Mont Lozère, Mont Aigoual, the gorges of Tarn and Jonte, the Causses Mejean and Sauveterre. Your guide will be able to tell you a lot about the flora and fauna and his trained endurance horses.
This is one of Europe's most active rides with long distances covered every day at a fast pace! To accompany you on this journey, you will ride fit Anglo-Arabs that are also actively involved in endurance competitions.

The diversity and desertification of this territory means that accommodations are rare and very different from one another. We will stay in small hotels, lodges or bed and breakfast where we take sleep and eat comfortably.
