Riders and Merens horses in the Pyrenees on a trail ride
France > Languedoc Roussillon - Cevennes

Horseback trails in the Languedoc Roussillon and Cevennes

The Languedoc Roussillon and Cevennes region, nestled between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean sea, offers fantastic riding opportunities in the south of France.
