On foot, aboard a boat, on a canoe, oars in hand or in the air... It is possible to visit the Loire and Allier gorges in various ways. You just have to find yours.
01
While sailing, aboard an electric boat
On the Loire, departing from Aurec-sur-Loire, there are electric and silent boats perfect for visiting the gorges without frightening the birds that inhabit them. Without a license so that everyone can try out this piloting with astonishing sensations.
02
By paddling, in the footsteps of the beaver and the otter
Far from the overcrowded nautical highways, we take the measure of the decor that surrounds us. In rafting, kayaking, canoeing, or stand-up paddle, our guides never cease to make us love these places and their inhabitants.
03
By walking, to reach lost beaches à la Robinson Crusoé
Several hikes offer the privilege of entering intimate gorges. Little corners of paradise where Mother Nature remains mistress of the place. It's up to us to respectfully borrow the kingdom to make hiking rhyme with idleness and water fights...
04
By running, to dare to gain height and tame the most beautiful viewpoints
We feel very small in front of this territory of adventures. The single-track trails take us further, in search of panoramas that we would not even have imagined.
05
On horseback, to discover the best fishing spots
With Emotion Pêche, Delphine and Steeve had a bright idea: to unite their two respective passions to reach areas untouched by any fisherman on horseback.
06
Down the slopes on a mountain bike
Get on your mountain bikes or other wheeled machines! The abysmal elevations offered by the Haute-Loire department are an infinite playground! Have fun crisscrossing the Gorges de la Loire and Allier to infinity! There are indeed 10 VTT-FFC spaces in Haute-Loire.
07
By daring the thrill, hanging on a zip line
It is possible to fly above the peaks and rivers in Haute-Loire! In particular, thanks to Saint Gal Parc Aventure and its 4 giant zip lines above the Allier to reach the verdant Île d'Amour, in Langeac. or the park Tyro-sur-Loire, in Chamalières-sur-Loire and its more than 1 m of zip lines which give the impression of flying above the forests and the river.
08
By gliding and flying over the Gorges aboard a hot air balloon
When you overcome the morning mist, the moment is magical, almost unreal. We sail gently above the clouds flooded by the first rays of the sun. The regular sound of the burner reminds us of reality: we dominate the lace of volcanoes.
09
Observing them at 180° from the top of the volcanoes
Thanks to the volcanoes that surround them, you can also observe the gorges from a height. On lucky days with clear skies, you can even see Mont-Blanc on the horizon!
10
Going back to the sources, like a salmon
Like a pilgrimage on the lines of our geography textbooks, we climb the steep path of the Mont Gerbier-de-Jonc, the GR 3. For theMix, it's the GR 470 which will allow us to go back to Lozère, to the sources of this river. 11 stages of 20 km on average from Brioude to its sources at Moure de la Gardille.
