Take a journey off the beaten path and discover the hidden gem that is the Lozère department in France, as presented in this travelog. Known as the "Roof of France", the Lozère is a breathtakingly beautiful region that boasts the ancient Gévaudan and the stunning Causses - towering limestone plateaus that offer a unique geological landscape. The plateau of the typical Causse is as wide as Dartmoor and as lofty as Helvellyn, a vast expanse of stony wasteland that blooms with wildflowers in the spring and is home to a people with a distinct language, physique, and primitive customs.
