| THE MARGERIDE |
Situated in the north east of the county, touching the Aubrac on the west side, the Margeride is a granite area sculpted during the primary era. Formerly a part of the Gévaudan county, this land shows a rich and eventful history.
Large deep patches of forest cross vast landscapes of lands, meadows and pastures, all between 1000 and 1500 meters high.
As by enchantment, huge time-eroded boulders of granite have been sparsely placed here and there, building up a mysterious and chaotic rocky countryside, a congregate of round and oval bulks springing from lands or woods. Granite is the matter, granite which made up the massive architecture of deep rooted farms on the tablelands, granite is the main character.
The Margeride is a land of secrecy, silence and whispers. The light pours through the paths, the small winding roads crossing the country, but most of all through the streams and rivers, like Truyère most beloved by anglers, and changes through seasons , from white blooming daffodils to dark pink heather...
It offers an untouched environment, various and wild, still and welcoming, proper to meditation as well as healthy activities. From Marvejols to Langogne, from Le Malzieu to Châteauneuf-de-Randon, the land of Lozère will give you the ancient quietness of the wild.
