La Porte des Fées - Parcours n°13
48140 Le Malzieu-Ville
A pleasant family walk along a shaded route through woods, meadows and traditional villages.
Starting from Malzieu-Ville, you’ll head up to the heights of the Truyère Valley, where you’ll be able to gaze through the Porte des Fées – an iconic site in the Margeride – at the gorges that have been carved out over the ages. You’ll then wander through woods and villages. Your route will be dotted with numerous crosses, each serving a variety of purposes. You’ll also discover the Pinjo Chabre menhir, a rare reminder of an ancient cult centred on megaliths and rocks. In the villages you pass through, do take the time to explore these small heritage sites – bread ovens, blacksmith’s workshops and wash houses – which bear witness to daily life in days gone by. Near Vareilles, you can even admire the mills by the stream.
