Follow in the footsteps of one of literature's great wanderers on the Robert Louis Stevenson Trail (GR70), a classic long-distance walk through the Cévennes and Massif Central of southern France. Stretching approximately 272 km (169 miles) from Le-Puy-en-Velay to Alès, this route takes around two weeks to complete and offers a unique blend of cultural history, rural charm and enduring landscapes that engage walkers from start to finish.
Whether you are new to multi-day trekking or an experienced hiker looking for a journey rich in narrative and scenery, this route delivers. The guidebook features clear, stage-by-stage route descriptions from north to south, bringing together the practical essentials and the stories that make this walk so special. Each stage includes a brief account of Robert Louis Stevenson's experiences with his donkey, Modestine, allowing you to connect with the original journey that inspired one of the great travel classics, Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes.
