Between Parc Naturel Régional du Haut-Languedoc and Grand Site Salagou - Cirque de Mourèze, 4 days of hiking between the most unknown and the most famous lake in the Hérault...
And to discover Avène and its thermal baths, the wide open spaces of the forests and pastures of the Monts d'Orb, the Orb and Gravezon valleys, and the ruffes of the Upper Salagou Valley. So little time for such a great journey...
The Sentier des Deux Lacs is the main component of the GR® de Pays Entre Deux Lacs Avène - Salagou: two lake tours over 2 or 3 days, and a Sentier des 2 lacs that can be completed in 3, 4 or 5 days. Wonderful slow-motion journeys through the nature and geology of the Hérault region, in the heart of the Terres d'Hérault Geopark.
