GR®71

From L'Esperou (Gard) to Lodeve (Herault)

Chemins de Grandes Randonnees

The GR®71, stretching 74 km, traverses the stunning landscapes of Gard, Aveyron, and Hérault, linking Espérou to Lodève. The first major stop is La Couvertoirade, a fortified medieval village that appears frozen in time. Its ramparts and cobbled streets narrate the history of the Templars and Hospitallers. The GR®71 then continues towards Le Caylar, where the path crosses rolling plateaus and flower-filled meadows, creating a striking contrast with the dense forests of the earlier stages. Along the way, streams and small waterfalls add a refreshing touch to the adventure, leading up to Soubès. The final part of the route takes you from Fozières to Lodève, passing through Soumont. The journey culminates in Lodève, a historic town renowned for its cathedral and museum.
