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.

Roc de Sant Salvador from Montalbà d'Amélie

The Tour de Batère, at the end of the hike, crowns the outing with beautiful 360° views.
Mount Helena
Starting from the town hall in Caixas, the ascent of Mont Helena, the highest point in the area, offers a few surprises in terms of heritage and botany. And above all, an extraordinary panorama of the Roussillon.
