Stevenson's trail

From Le Puy-en-Velay (Haute-Loire) to Ales (Gard)

268km

Through the Cévennes with a donkey is a travelogue by Robert Louis Stevenson published in June 1879. It recounts the journey of the author, then aged 28, who decides to cross the Cévennes, a mountain range located in the south of France, with his only companion a little donkey that he named Modestine. Stevenson left from Le Monastier-sur-Gazeille, in Haute-Loire, on September 22, 1878, and reached Saint-Jean-du-Gard, in Gard, on October 30. During his journey, he meets friendly locals, magnificent landscapes and funny adventures. The story is written in a simple, realistic style, and it offers an insight into rural life in 19th-century France. It is also an ode to nature and the simple life.
