Cady (rivière) walks

A pleasant circular walk starting from Casteil. The climb is steep on a rugged path up to the abbey and a viewpoint.The path then levels out to the Chapelle Saint-Benoît, offering magnificent views of Vernet-les-Bains.The return journey follows a tarmac road downhill, passing by the Chapel of Saint-Martin le Vieux.

A very classic walk to Saint-Martin du Canigou Abbey, an easy route, but very popular. The route is shaded and very pleasant. It is suitable for vehicles and pushchairs. The abbey is nestled in a beautiful setting and is well worth a visit.

A half-day hike offering superb views of Canigou and the surroundings of Vernet-les-Bains. You will also see the Church of Saint-Martin du Canigou nestled in its setting. The longer version of this route can be extended to Torre de Goa, returning via the path marked on the map on the western side, or by going to Colle de Jou and descending via the correc del coll de Jou and Casteil.

A very pretty hike that takes you to this beautiful restored tower and its stunning views. No particular difficulties. The GPX track may be useful, particularly from (S/E) to (6).

First stage of the Three Days on Canigou. This climb to the Mariailles Refuge allows you to discover a magnificent water supply channel.

A very beautiful hike, partly on marked trails. The route includes a circular path on the map that is not marked, where the descent to the Cascade des Anglais is very steep for 100 metres and should not be attempted if it is raining or still wet. In case of bad weather, plan to descend via the usual trail.

The fourth stage highlights the ascent of Canigou. Please take note of the following warnings about this route: ''Info 2023: The route linking Pic du Canigó and passing through the chimney is no longer marked. The Conflent Canigó Tourist Office cannot provide information on its accessibility. It is strongly recommended that you take the Barbet ridges (PR®8) or the GR®10 if you are coming from the Mariailles refuge to reach the Cortalets refuge. In addition, please note: as climbing the peak is a high-altitude mountain activity, it is important to be prepared, informed and well equipped." See also this link

Three-day circular hike starting from Casteil. It takes you up to Mariailles via an old water channel, up the Canigou via the chimney, and back to Casteil via pretty, uncrowded paths.

This route allows you to discover military remains (Vauban's cistern and redoubt) as well as former ore quarries (marble, manganese and talc) and, above all, superb panoramic views of the Têt and Cady valleys. You can also see Villefranche-de-Conflent and Fort Libéria from above. This is a fairly easy hike, but don't underestimate the length.

A beautiful and challenging hike above Vernet-les-Bains. I have classified this hike as difficult due to its significant gradient (900 m over 5 km) and paths that are sometimes difficult in certain places. Tricky section at the Font del Bac dels Monjos (5) and difficult right up to (6).

Situated at the foot of the Canigó Massif and in the heart of the Catalan Pyrenees Regional Nature Park, Vernet-les-Bains is both a spa town and a Station Verte. From the old village to the spa district, via the many hiking trails that criss-cross the outskirts of Vernet-les-Bains, it is a place of relaxation and tradition. We invite you to take a short stroll to admire the old village and the surrounding mountains.

Variation of a mountain stage that is part of theGR®®36.This way of connecting the two refuges allows you to avoid the crowds. The path from the Cabane de Moura to Coll del Cavall Mort is quite challenging.Read practical information in case of bad weather.

This day is devoted to the ascent of Pic du Canigou from the Refuge des Cortalets, and the descent via the chimney to the Refuge Arago, then to Mariailles, the starting point of the hike.

A fairly challenging hike leading to the Tour de Goa, a listed historical monument. A breathtaking panoramic view from the ridges between the Pic de la Péna and the Tour à Signaux. And an incredible 360° view from the Tour de Goa with an orientation table.
