Las Illas in Amélie-les-Bains
Third day of this crossing of the Albères.This is the greenest part of the route as it is mainly through forest.You will pass by the highest point of Roc de France (Roca de Frausa) with a magnificent panorama over a large part of the Eastern Pyrenees and Canigou (Canigó).
Puig Sant Cristau via the Col de Llinas

The Chapel of Saint-Philippe and La Font Sant Martí in Le Boulou
Short hike with a slight incline on the first part of the route.
The six fountains and the Coll de l'Espinassa from Montesquieu-des-Albères
A beautiful, steady climb to Coll de l'Espinassa (Espinàs). It is entirely possible to follow the track to the large picnic area in order to maintain a constant gradient.There are no fewer than six working fountains on the way to the pass (10). Then there is a very steep descent to the picnic area passed on the way there (6). And a pleasant return to the village.During the hike, sheltered from the tramontane wind, there are views of the Roussillon plain, Les Aspres and Canigou.
The GPX track is necessary on this route given the paths taken, which are not necessarily maintained.It is possible to do this hike in the opposite direction, starting from the Trois Vents fountain (6), so that the return trip along the track is less steep. The aim of the hike is to reach the Coll de l'Espinàs (10), and the return journey can simply be made by the same route.
Circular around the ponds of Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts
A pleasant walk for the whole family around the ponds. Water activities available in summer, tree-top adventure course, meeting place for anglers.
The Chemin de Vivès and the Sentier du Liège from Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts
From Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts, these two marked trails lead up to Vivès and then Llauro*.
A beautiful hike on wide, comfortable paths and tracks, which can be split into two.
The markings are visible in the direction described.
The return from Llauro is along a ridge path and then, from ::12:, along a DFCI track.
Not recommended for those who do not like wide tracks and paths.
Fortunately, the landscape makes up for this monotony.
Roc Sant Salvador - France-Spain border from Montalbà d'Amélie
This is a very difficult hike due to the steep incline on certain sections.Passage through Collada Sant Marti, Roc de la Sentinella, and Coll de la Dona Morta.A good sense of direction and the GPX track are essential. But your efforts will be rewarded by the magnificent scenery.NOTE: the final ascent of Roc Salvador is reserved for experienced hikers who are not prone to vertigo.Shortcut possible from Coll Cerdà ⁴. The climb to Roc can be avoided ².

Since 05/05/2023: it is no longer permitted to use this access road between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. due to the risk of fire.
Circular on the heights of Argelès-sur-Mer
A beautiful hike with stunning views of the Ermitage Notre-Dame de Vie, the town of Argelès, the port and the sea.
Short technical section with a steep, rocky climb, a mix of tracks and tarmac paths. Stunning views guaranteed, but little shade in summer...

Hike in the hills above Argelès, passing by the Hermitage of Notre-Dame de Vie and its Saint Jerome Chapel, then the Saint Laurent-du-Mont Chapel. Magnificent panoramic views of the Roussillon plain, Argelès-sur-Mer, the sea and the port. A varied hike with many wide tracks, beautiful single tracks in forests and a few technical sections on rocks and pebbles.
La Torre de la Maçana from Argelès-sur-Mer station
- From the Argelès-sur-Mer SNCF train station, climb up to the Tour de la Massane via marked trails and paths.
- The hike can start from Valmy Castle near (3). See practical information.
I recommend reading the practical information section regarding the different routes.
The hike could be classified as difficult due to some very rough sections of the trail and the need for good navigation skills.
