The Aubrac plateau
The Aubrac National Park, the Alto Braco, is a High Plateau, created with basalt and granite overlapping the Aveyron, Lozère and Cantal regions at an altitude of 1100 meters.
The Aubrac is permeated with Burons, stone huts with slate roofs. Wherever your eyes reach you can see the «Drailles», rocky barriers to keep the lifestock, as well as the «Boraldes», deep groves drawn by the lively streams. This breathtaking and harsh environment has inspired the Laguiole knives ever since 1828 and given them their true soul.
