T<\/span>he Aubrac plateau<\/a> very much reminds me of the Spanish Meseta<\/a>, with a couple of important differences. For one thing, it’s a lot smaller. While walking across the Meseta on the Camino Franc\u00e9s will generally take you more than a week, the Aubrac is closer to three or so days. There are more rolling hills and trees on the Aubrac, and rather than agriculture, the main industry is the famous Aubrac cattle<\/a>.

A place where you can walk alone for hours, lost in your prayers and thoughts. A place where the Divine is immanent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
