Possibilité de faire la randonnée en trois jours avec une première étape à Villerouge-Termènes (gîtes disponibles) et une deuxième à Lagrasse (gîtes disponibles). Possibilité de démarrer la boucle de 3 étapes d'un autre point (Villerouge-Termenes ou Lagrasse par exemple) ou de faire le parcours en sens inverse, mais il est plus difficile de se loger à Mayronnes. En bivouac, nombreux lieux où il semble possible de s'arrêter pour la nuit sur le parcours.
Boucle des Corbières
Une randonnée, en boucle de trois jours, dans les Corbières entre Mayronnes, Termes, Villerouge-Termenès, Lagrasse et Rieux-en-Val, largement inspirée de la Boucle des Corbières par le GR®36. Sentiers vallonnés, de basse à moyenne altitude (542 m au plus haut), praticables en toutes saisons. Le parcours passe à proximité de nombreux châteaux, traverse plusieurs villages médiévaux et alterne entre pechs et vallées, en longeant de nombreux vignobles.

The Lacamp plateau overlooking the Val de Dagne offers numerous viewpoints. Heath, communal forest (beech and oak) and state-owned forest (fir and cedar). This trail passes two orientation tables that provide information about the Montagne Noire and the Pyrenees. It led to Bouisse, a day's walk across the Lacamp plateau.
On the village square, next to the fountain and at the corner of the old town hall, a sign describing the trail was installed in 2010.
Since 2020, the old public toilets have become the smallest museum in the world!

Departure from Saint-Pierre-des-Champs (Aude)
Despite its modest altitude, Mont Major (542 m), the highest point of the Serre de Blanes, offers a magnificent, almost 360° panorama encompassing the Montagne d’Alaric, the Carcassonne plain and, on a clear day, the peaks of the Ariège Pyrenees and the Canigou. The ascent, starting from the village of Saint-Pierre-des-Champs, takes place amidst a landscape typical of the Corbières, with small, isolated vineyards, pine trees and heath where holm oaks reign supreme. A breath of fresh air in a setting where peace and quiet are guaranteed.
