Visiting Mont Aigoual? What could be better than renting an Airbnb chalet or apartment in Mont Aigoual, enjoying the town like a local?
Delimiting the departments of Gard and Lozère, Mont Aigoual is a Cévennes and mid-mountain peak, standing at just 1,567 meters above sea level. But that doesn’t stop the surrounding area from boasting a rich ski area!
The local resort is Prat Peyrot, named after the nearby mountain pass. It is located in the former commune of Valleraugue, which will merge with Val d’Aigoual in 2019. The other villages, l’Espérou and Saint Sauveur Camprieu, are very close by, providing easy access to the resort. Le Prat Peyrot is a small resort, with just a few pistes.
In summer, Mont Aigoual reveals all its charms thanks to superb hiking trails. On a clear day, you can see the Alps, the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea!
