The Lost Land of Central France - Lozere


Yes, when thinking of France, one tends to think of its 1000 year old culture, heritage, museums, wine and gastronomy and of course shopping, But intense nature? Well,  to be honest, not that often, but located in Central France, an area known as Lozere has a landscape that is breathtaking striking, still pristine, the lowest density of population within France and yet only about 1 or 2 hours from the sea. Slow travel is the key here, a chance to refill your soul from the business and hectic life we all lead these days.
The highlight here is a magnificent Gorges du Tarn ( one of my clients described it as going through Bryce Canyon in the United States). 
Here also you'l find a multitude of wildlife with regional parks hosting wolves, vultures, wild horses and much more. 
Canoeing along the Tarn is a major recreation here and a must for all visitors.
