July 31, 2022, [Cévennes] Les gorges du Chassezac

Passing on the old mule tracks and the old irrigation canals of the chestnut groves, we discover magnificent panoramas. The gorges and the steep slopes, the blocks of granite, the meanders of the Chassezac or even the discovery of small picturesque villages and the crossing on the rope bridges leave an unforgettable memory!

We left for barely 10 km and we arrived as if we had done 30. The descent to the passerelle was reasonable, but after that it was a reasonable climb. We had to cross the Chazzecac again without a bridge. Wet feet of course and a very steep climb. It was very beautiful, but next time, I don't know. But all in all, we survived. For the adventurers among us, definitely do it. Worth 5 **†**.

Fantastic immersion in and around the Cassezac Gorges. The climb back to La Garde Guerin is a real challenge!

Certainly not an average hike, but quite challenging. Steep climbs on partially impassable paths. A beautiful walk nonetheless.
