Mythical trail land

Origins

Crossing the Grands Causses is an experience in itself! But doing it running gives you the opportunity to take full advantage of these sumptuous landscapes. This diversity of landscapes is as spectacular as it is astonishing.

Crossing the Grands Causses

A wealth of memories

and legs!
The "imaginary" treasure hunt

Mushroom, arch, keel, hammer, totem, lion’s head, anvil, dromedary, tabular, the Grands Causses offer us natural sculptures of surprising beauty and originality.
Incredible work of erosion to arrive at such forms for which the imagination can indulge in all the ramblings, all the interpretations. Total admiration!

An ambassador's word

Right in the heart of the Grands Causses Espace Trail, Virginie Govignon shares with Sophie Jovillard, of the Echappées belles program, her love for this diversity of landscapes, these marked seasons and her experience of trail running in the area.

Grands Causses Espace Trail

A charter of good conduct

A charter of good conduct to better respect each other on the territory!
Need fordialogue and listening, need for concertation and understanding, ultimately need formeetings and cohesion around a great project, that of sharing the great outdoors…the Grands Causses are in this process so that practitioners, hunters, owners – farmers and foresters and communities commit themselves in good intelligence on the same path, that of respect and sharing of the territory .

For several years now, round tables have been organized, bringing together the local outdoor players, the local authorities, the ONF, the farming community….
These constructive meetings led to the creation of a charte de bonne conduite inviting each and every individual and community to commit to:

  • respect for private property
  • respect for environmental issues
  • sharing natural space in a spirit of good understanding and courtesy
