La Clauze Castle

Highlight • Other

All that remains of this medieval castle is this large octagonal keep. In 1575, the looting and destruction of part of the building took place. It represents fairly well the military architecture of the 14th century.

Le Sauvage Pilgrims' Hostel

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The hostel is self-catering from October to April. In high season, it only offers a half-board option. It is also possible to book a picnic to take away when you leave, to continue your hike in the best conditions.

Sauvage Estate

Highlight • Mountain Hut

This stopover gîte located on the crests of the Margeride is the perfect stopover in these fairly isolated places. Besides, there are no housing alternatives other than this one, except the bivouac.
