Description

A nice loop that starts in the village of Ceillac, leading you to the Sagnes, then to the Pied du Mélézet. The return path to the village runs along the Mélézet torrent, on the left bank.
Launch of the forestry project in the Bois de Jalavez area of Ceillac. Logging operations will begin around June 8, 2026. The plots being logged are crossed by marked footpaths, which will be temporarily disrupted. The work site will be marked with safety signs. Communication panels on forest management will also be installed. At the end of the cut (July 15, 2026), the site will be restored and the slash treated. In spring and autumn, conditions are changeable, and even snow-free trails can be icy. So, in the mountains, the reflex to adopt is "go out well equipped". In my bag, I slip or I hang: crampons and poles. In winter, the right reflexes are: snowshoes, poles, gloves, hat, sun cream and... a survival blanket! Experience is essential, and knowing when to give up is sometimes preferable to taking risks. And if you're new to the mountains, don't hesitate to call in a professional! Before going out, I check the Météo France Montagnes and BERA bulletins (risks and avalanches).
