Itinerary details

Type d’itinéraire : Roaming

Stone, Ground, Hard coating (tar, cement, flooring)

The Grande Traversée de l'Ardèche VTT runs north-south from Annonay to Bourg-Saint-Andéol over 315km. You'll discover the Mézenc and Gerbier de Jonc mountains, the Païolive forest and the Ardèche Gorges.

After a fine ascent on wide paths to the desert plateau of Cham Longe, this 4th stage joins the watershed at the Col du Bez. Entering the Borne valley, the trail rises steeply before descending to Loubaresse. From here, you're on a plateau with a magnificent view of the Cévennes. Passing close to the boules de Gargantua, a granite chaos, the trail joins Montselgues and its flora of peaty wetlands amid callune and broom heaths, the peat bogs.
