GR®7

From Vosges to Pyrenees

From Ballon d'Alsace (Vosges) to Portella Blanca of Andorra (France-Spain)

1467km

The watershed is a topographic line that separates the watersheds of rivers that flow into the Atlantic Ocean or the Mediterranean Sea. The GRŪ7 is a long-distance hiking trail that crosses France from north to south. It begins at Ballon d'Alsace, in the Vosges, and ends at Portella Blanca, in Andorra. The section of the GRŪ7 which crosses the Monts d'Ardèche is one of the most picturesque of the route. It offers spectacular views of mountains, valleys and rivers. The GRŪ7 trail follows the watershed approximately. This means that the trail does not always follow the exact line, but gets as close to it as possible. The trail crosses forests, meadows, passes and peaks. It is well signposted and easy to follow. Hiking along the watershed is a unique experience. It is an opportunity to discover the natural beauty of the Massif Central and to understand the importance of water resource management.
