The Combes circular
Hike through vineyards, heath and pine trees. During this walk, we will pass around several combs, which inspired its name. We will take the famous Cathar Trail, which we will leave halfway down to descend towards Roquefort. At the highest point, we can admire Roquefort at the foot of its cliffs, as well as the coastline with the sea and the Sigean Lagoon.
Pastoral loop of Caves
Walk along the hillsides of the picturesque village of Caves, which takes its name from its wine-growing past. Through the heathland, among holm oaks, rosemary and frigoules, numerous dry stone walls and old sheepfolds bear witness to a pastoral presence that has now disappeared. During the climb, on a clear day, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the coastline from La Palme to Barcarès.
Around the Étang du Doul
This easy, short hike is a loop around the Étang du Doul. It starts in the picturesque village of Peyriac-de-Mer, located between Narbonne and Sigean. Wine growing, fishing and tourism are the main activities here. During the walk, you will pass the Étangs de la Saline, Étangs du Doul, Étangs de Bages and Étangs de Sigean. From the heights, you can admire a splendid view of Bages and La Nautique.
On the heights of La Palme
An easy hike that starts in the pretty little village of La Palme and forms a loop. The first third of the route climbs gently to the top of the plateau. The second part is relatively flat with a multitude of paths winding through the heath. The walk ends with a gentle slope, offering superb views of the sea, the Étang de la Palme and the old salt marshes.
Walk around Feuilla
An easy circular route around the small village of Feuilla. Surrounded by vineyards, this village is dominated by an old mill called Moulin de Calé. In the heart of the Corbières Maritimes, you can admire its valleys, now abandoned to nature. A few isolated farms in the middle of the heath, around which horses frolic.
Above Coustouge
In the heart of the Corbières, a circular route north of the small village of Coustouge. This hilly and shaded route is particularly pleasant in summer. Through pine forests and heaths, we will come across some ruins of old sheepfolds.
Loop around Villesèque-des-Corbières
A short loop east of the typical little village of Villesèque-des-Corbières. After crossing vineyards, the first challenge is the climb up to the plateau where, in the middle of the heath and a field of wind turbines, you will reach the Col de Gléon. On the way down, we will pass close to the Janfestre spring before tackling the second difficulty, a steep but short ramp, to reach the starting point via the Chemin de la Cabayride.
⚠️ 31/07/2025: Access to all the Corbières mountains is currently prohibited by the prefecture due to the risk of fire.
From Bages to Les Pesquis
A short, easy loop west of the small village of Bages in the Aude department. This walk through wild olive trees, maritime pines and heathland offers splendid views of the lake and surrounding villages. You will discover varied landscapes with shaded areas, wide paths and very narrow trails.
The tour of the cortals, serres, plats and coumes from Fitou
This easy loop passes through various places called cortal, serre, plat or coume. In the middle of the heath with its holm oaks, box trees, rosemary and junipers, you can admire splendid views of the Étang de Leucate, as well as primitive stone constructions called drystone shelters, a legacy of medieval pastoralism.
