Located in the south-east of the Massif Central, between the volcanoes of Auvergne and the Cevennes, the Mont Lozère is an old granite massif,
wild and preserved. Known mainly for its Stevenson's path with the beautiful stage by the summit of Finiels, it dominates
the Cevennes valleys and the Gorges du Tarn.
