Hiking - From Déroc to la Peyrade

Starting from Nasbinals, in the heart of the Aubrac plateau, this circuit will take you past the Lac des Salhiens, which fills a glacial overdeepening basin. You will then pass above the Déroc waterfall, the outflow of Lac des Salhiens, which plunges 32 m down a cliff of basalt "organ pipes". Finally, you will walk at the foot of la Peyrade, a rocky summit overlooking the summer pastures.
