A very irregular climb, with a few steep inclines and descents, this is the route of the crests and it follows them. A route steeped in history, with a Roman road beneath the village of Coudoulous (and a signposted walk). You are rewarded with a magnificent view of the Bougés. If you continue towards the Lozère plateau by mountain bike or on foot, it's sublime. Information from the Cévennes National Park.

Montée très irrégulière, avec quelques raidillons et des descentes,c'est la route des crêtes et elle les suit .
Route chargée d'histoire avec une voie romaine sous le village de Coudoulous .(Et une marche balisée. )
On est récompensé par un point de vue magnifique sur le Bougés.
Si vous continuez vers le plateau du Lozère à Vtt ,ou à pied c'est sublime .
Infos avec le parc national des Cévennes.
Si vous préparez des ascensions,dans une optique sportive montez par Genolhac, circuit possible par le col de Banette .
