Catllar walks

A circular hike from this Catalan village in the Conflent region – Canigó, as well as the Regional Nature Park.Numerous huts (orris), built entirely of stone, suggest that this mountain was extensively used for livestock farming and some cereal crops.The climb to the Coll de Tribes joins the GRP® Tour des Fenouillèdes and offers a 360° view.This hike requires a good sense of direction. Use of the GPX track is essential.

Beautiful circular with views of Canigou and the valley. Don't miss the Saint-Jacques Chapel.

This hike takes place on paths that are rarely or never used. The route is enhanced by passing through various sites. This long hike ² should be avoided in hot weather despite the low vegetation cover.

This hike will take us from the village of Eus to the restored hermitage of Saint-Jacques de Calahons via a path that runs partly through the woods. We will follow part of the Chemin des Cabanes, the remains of pastoral activity. The Canigou mountain range accompanies us along the entire route.

This hike is classified as difficult due to its length, a steep climb and the need for a good sense of direction. However, the route follows beautiful paths and tracks that are almost always uncovered. It is a discovery of a landscape that is still occupied by humans, goats and sheep. A mountain water catchment supplies water to the magnificent Catalan village of Eus.

This hike takes place on a south-facing slope, allowing you to spend a day in the sun, with the Canigou massif in your sights.

A quick detour to view the village from above and admire the irrigation system along the canal. Much of the walk is in the shade.

A hike with multiple panoramic views, ideal from October to May: very sunny. The GPX track will be useful on a few sections where the yellow markings are scarce. See §: Practical information

A lovely hike combining two circular loops to make a round trip from Molitg-Les-Bains via the Hermitage of Sant Jaume de Calaons, with superb views of the sea, the plain, the Pic du Canigou and the Pic du Madrès.

A pleasant hike in Conflent Roman, on trails partly through the woods, around the Taurinya valley, where the Abbey of Saint-Michel de Cuxa (10th and 12th centuries), one of the largest pre-Romanesque churches in Europe, is nestled. See also the impressive siphon of the Bohère Canal and, at the foot of Canigou, the former Salver de Taurinya mining site. Several viewpoints over the valley and the Canigou massif.

A beautiful hike facing the Canigou massif. It takes you up to Pic del Rosselló, from where you enter a spectacular mineral area. Cross a plateau dotted with rounded rock mounds that look as if they were placed there by giants. A magnificent landscape used for grazing, facing the long Pyrenees massif to the south.

Hike on good trails that allow you to discover mountain chapels. Beautiful views of the Madres Massif. A visit to Conat is also interesting. The only difficulty is above Saint-Christophe Chapel: the trail is unmarked and sometimes difficult to see. It is necessary to know how to use a map and compass and/or how to follow a GPS track. However, it is possible to avoid this section and shorten the hike by connecting the points (3) to (9).

Starting from Ria, this route, in the foothills of the Coronat massif, leads to the discovery of a major site, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. All that remains of the old abandoned village of Bell Lloc or Beau Site are a few house foundations and the12th-century Romanesque chapel of Sant-Andreu-de-Bell-Lloc, which is very well preserved and offers wonderful views of the Canigou massif and the surrounding valleys. The Conat Nature Reserve is a regulated area; picking, gathering and damaging the site are prohibited, and visitors must respect the site. A easy route.

Hike from pass to pass from the Abbey of Saint-Michel de Cuxa. Pass through the old Salver mining site then on to the Cours tower. The hike itself is not difficult, but a very good sense of direction, good terrain reading skills, the route on the app or GPS and the description are essential. Variations are possible: see § Practical information.

A walk beneath Canigou with views of the villages on the left bank of the Têt. You will pass a dolmen and the ruins of the church in the old village. No difficulty. Suitable in all seasons.

A little-visited but very pleasant area, in winter or early spring when the Canigou is covered in snow. The trail is mostly signposted and very well marked.

A beautiful and easy hike open to all in the Catalan Pyrenees Regional Nature Park, which will allow you to discover the villages of Clara and Taurinya. The starting point is in the car park opposite the Church of Saint-Martin in Clara.

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.
