The highlight of the second 22 km stage of the Entre Combade et Briance variant of the GR® de Pays Monts et Barrages en Limousin is the unmissable Mont Gargan! It offers sublime panoramic views and lets you discover one of the all-too-rare remnants of dry moorland, a natural habitat rich in biodiversity that once covered all the summits of the Limousin.
As you travel through this region, you'll also be reminded of the great history that saw the maquisards and Resistance fighters here and there against the Nazi invaders and the dictatorial regime of Pétain.
A journey through history that takes you to Saint-Méard and its Echizadour tower, one of the few medieval keeps in the area.
