An interpretation trail running along the Gijou Valley, a Natura 2000 protected site.
Panels along the way highlight the valley’s ecological richness.
Stretching from the river’s source in Lacaune-les-Bains to Vabre, the 30-km trail offers a variety of landscapes and viewpoints.
Much of the route follows the former railway line of the “Petit Train”, which connected the mountain villages to Castres for over 50 years.
Abandoned in 1962, the railway has since become a scenic hiking trail.
