The origin of the Saint Guilhem Way dates back to the Middle Ages. It was originally a sheep transhumance route that linked the hinterland of Montpellier to the volcanic plateau of the Aubrac. Shepherds drove their flocks each season from the dry garrigues to the fresh and verdant pastures of the Aubrac. From the 11th century onwards, the Saint Guilhem Way also became a pilgrimage route. The abbey of Gellone, located in Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert, is an important pilgrimage destination due to the presence of the relics of Saint Guilhem, a warrior saint who retired to the abbey to lead a monastic life. Saint Guilhem d'Orange, or Guillaume d'Orange, was a Count of Toulouse who lived in the 9th century. He was a celebrated warrior, but he also led a troubled lay existence. After living a life of violence and debauchery, he converted to Christianity and retired to the abbey of Gellone to lead a monastic life. The legend of Guillaume d'Orange has been passed down to us through the epic song "Guillaume d'Orange". This song, which was composed in the 12th century, tells the exploits of Guillaume d'Orange as a warrior and as a saint. The Saint Guilhem Way is a popular hiking trail that is well-maintained and easy to follow. It is a great way to experience the natural beauty of the Languedoc region and to learn about the history and culture of the area.
