Le Fest'Trail Causses & Rougier
An eco-friendly event, to discover the richness of a remarkable territory, at the heart of the Grands Causses Regional Natural Park. Exceptional landscapes, but also a regional patrimony with a departure at the foot of the castle of Montaigut, which dominates the valley of the Rougier, from the top of its rocky promontory; or the passage by the rock of Caylus, ancient fortified site of the counts of Saint-Affrique. And finally the know-how of our local producers, whose products will come to garnish the aid stations as well as the tables for a well deserved meal.
