The Crueize is a river in France that runs in the Lozère department in the Occitanie region . It is created by the confluence of the two source streams Ruisseau de Sinières and Ruisseau des Caves in the municipality of Le Buisson , initially drained through the Aubrac Regional Nature Park to the north, then turns to the southeast and flows around 19 kilometers into the municipality of Saint-Léger-de- Peyre as a right tributary to the Colagne .
Near Le Buisson, the Crueize crosses under the A75 motorway and then continues in the deeply cut valley of Vallée de l'Enfer , where the Béziers – Neussargues railway spans the river with an imposing viaduct.
