Corneilla-la-Rivière walks

You will cross dirt tracks and a few tarmaced sections, through vineyards, heath and olive groves... which will take you to Castell de Força Réal, at an altitude of 507 m... No particular difficulty apart from the climb up the north face to the observation post. Once at the top, enjoy a picnic and discover the breathtaking view of the Canigou massif and the Têt valley... You can even see the sea on a clear day. Return via some very pleasant paths...

This circular route in the hills above Néfiach takes you on a route through the heath along various paths and tracks. Starting from the ford, it climbs towards Caladroy without actually reaching it, as it descends back into the valley below Caladroy, passing close to Pic Haut, which can be visited as an optional detour.

A superb getaway in the heart of Catalan heritage, punctuated by chapels, panoramic views and history.

This loop offers breathtaking views of the castle and village of Castelnou from Roc de Majorque. It was from this highest point that several destructive attacks were launched on the castle.

A beautiful heritage getaway in the heart of the Aspres. However, pay attention to strategic points as this is an unmarked hike. The starting point is at the car park (unfortunately subject to a charge) of the Sainte-Marie du Mercadal Church (listed as a Historic Monument).

Starting from the village of Sainte-Colombe-de-la-Commanderie, we will take paths through the heath to Castenou, one of the most beautiful villages in France, then on to Roc Majorque with a 360° view of the Roussillon plain.

A short climb on a rocky trail leads to an old hermitage in a superb setting with a beautiful view from the top.

A climb to Roc Rodon which, despite its modest altitude, offers exceptional views of the Pyrenees and the Corbières. After passing the Hermitage of Notre-Dame de Pène, a long ridge walk leads to the village of Calce. The route continues through the vineyards, leading to the Chapel of Sainte-Catherine before climbing back up to the ridge and returning to the starting point via a balcony path overlooking the Agly valley. A very varied and exotic route on the outskirts of Perpignan.

Hike to discover this low mountain range that was once exploited by humans. Numerous terraces bear witness to this past. Vines were cultivated here. Mechanisation marked the end of the exploitation of these wild and difficult-to-access areas.Yellow markings are virtually non-existent, and recent directional posts have been installed (observed at the end of January 2024). They are not really relevant. A GPX track is necessary on this route with its many paths.

This circular loop, starting from Latour-de-France, takes you around the Touréze massif, with visits to several stone orri dotted along the route. Southern heath and a mix of tracks, roads and paths.

Before the current border was established, Roussillon was officially part of Spain between 1258 and 1659. Very few boundary markers from this original border remain. The trail allows you to discover three of them, as well as a cave and an ice well; it also offers superb views of the Pyrenees and the Corbières.

This circular route, marked in yellow, starts from the village of Belesta and climbs up to Pic d'Aubeil, then descends towards the sheepfold, the dolmen and finally the village.

This is an alternative way to the Tour de Tautavel from Cases-de-Pène. Advantage: sheltered from the tramontana wind. Disadvantage: sunny in summer.

Here is a lovely walk that takes place in the foothills of the Aspres, at the foot of Mont Canigou.

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.

A getaway to the Catalan Corbières region, where you can discover Tautavel and its interesting heritage.

A very pleasant circular walk, with a 360° view from the top of the Tour del Far, and a lovely stroll along the ridge of the Serra that separates Tautavel from Cases de Pène. On the way back, you pass a solar farm and through the gorges of a former marble quarry, now disused.

A round trip to the Catalan Corbières region will take you to the Tour del Far, where you can enjoy a magnificent 360° panorama. Thishike is strongly discouraged in high winds.

The hike is mainly on beautiful trails, mostly wooded and dotted with various information panels. There are many beautiful landscapes. Unfortunately, two chapels are closed along the route (20 April 2023), but there is an old well and an information panel explaining how the forest landscape is maintained through traditional pastoral farming.This hike is called the Iron Trail, used by the Romans to transport iron from the Batère mines. It passes through the pretty hamlet of Els Hostalets.This hike can be done by mountain bike.

A short walk around Montalba-le-Château to enjoy the diversity of the landscapes.

A lovely circular of two hours starting from Montalba-le-Château and passing through Puig Pedrous.

A beautiful approach to Lake Caramany with views along the route.

With Rodès Castle and the Guillera Gorges to start the hike, the diversity of the next section offers spectacular heath and rock landscapes in the midst of a unique mineral environment. It feels like wandering through a world of giants who have placed rounded blocks of rock, forming piles of monumental boulders scattered among the broom and rockroses that dot the area.

This hike in the north-western sector of Rodès mainly follows little-used paths. This circular route sometimes requires walking on poorly marked paths overgrown with vegetation (trousers recommended), and sometimes on well-marked paths or tracks (but as little as possible, as we prefer the paths). The "common thread" of the day is the almost constant view of Canigou. Some parts are not easy to walk, so they are reserved for walkers who are not afraid to "wear out their shoes". Visorando app recommended.

This is a short, easy loop that offers beautiful views.

Puig Pedrós is a classic hike in Rodès. We wanted to climb it via a path that is no longer used. It runs around the Vallagra Ravine. As it was poorly marked, if at all, we reopened the middle section of the path, before and after crossing the Còrrec de Vallagra, on the right and left banks (lots of brambles and Mediterranean vegetation). We crossed the stream (elevation 319) using tree trunks deposited by the recent floods. This part of the route is a bit adventurous and is intended for adventurers. The rest of the circular route is uneventful.The GPX track is highly recommended.

This is a hike that can be done even in winter and in the sunshine. We are in a region with a privileged climate. This easy circular hike of just over 8 km takes you through fragrant and colourful scrubland vegetation with the majestic Canigou massif as a backdrop.

We are between the former kingdoms of Aragon and France, a superb circular hike of just over 17 km that will take you to two abandoned villages and up to Puig Pedros and its border marker. A region that is always sunny, with a splendid view of Mont Canigou through the fragrant maquis vegetation.

A beautiful hike, with a significant section along the ridge, which requires the use of a GPS or the Visorando app. Take care on the steep descent between (6) and (7). Hike classified as difficult (no signposting, sense of direction). Early January 2024: path blocked from the Coll de les Arques. Then, after the Coll de Saleig, tree felling, pasture clearing and track widening have removed all the markings and directional signs! At Coll de l’Aspic: a large area has been cleared and widened! So no more markings; the only landmark is the old blue van at this pass. The landscape, stretching as far as the eye can see, remains as beautiful as ever. You should allow around 5 hours to complete this circular route, including breaks and trips to the viewpoints. The .gpx track may prove useful at the start of the route from (2) to (6), and from (13) to (14).

This circular route goes around the ridges of the Serrabone priory in the Eastern Pyrenees. Starting from the priory, the trail climbs to the right towards the ridges, then follows them before descending back to the priory. Landscape of moorland and heath in the mid-mountains. The hike can be continued with a visit to the Serrabone priory in the commune of Boule d'Amont.

A short hike offering a number of advantages. It features varied terrain, with two-thirds of the route covered by woodland, combining a Provençal atmosphere, the chic neighbourhood of Montpins with its beautiful mansions, and a forest setting. Breathtaking views of almost the entire department in a single glance along wide paths that allow you to chat side-by-side with others whilst hiking. The route is neither difficult nor technical, but there are a few steep sections.

A pleasant walk around the Villeneuve de la Raho lake with a semi-wild section where you can see a large number of birds.

The suggested walk takes you up to the ridge, where you can enjoy a superb panoramic view.Serrabona Abbey, on the route described, is well worth a visit. This site, which is in excellent condition, is currently being refurbished.An additional route starting from Serrabona can be added to this hike. *The walk will be moderately difficult (sense of direction required) and will take an extra hour and a half.Please note. Observed on 14 January 2024: after the (6), the track has been widened, the pastures cleared, and trees felled. The original path is very difficult to follow: the markings and posts have disappeared! The GPX track is very useful from this point onwards.

Hike through the Maury vineyards with panoramic views of the valley and unusual views of the Château de Quéribus.

Circular loop following the route of the Battle of Le Boulou with numerous information panels. You will also pass by the small Saint-Luc Chapel, which has been restored.

An exceptional hike, but: - the 6 km ridge walk from Grau de Maury to La Quille. - the route passes close to steep cliffs and includes a section of rock climbing, so it is strongly advised against for people who are prone to vertigo. Only experienced hikers in good physical condition and accustomed to rocky terrain can complete this hike safely. GPX track essential. Be prepared to turn back if necessary.

A beautiful hike in the open air with the aim of climbing Santa Anna dels Quatre Termes. First, a climb to Coll Palomeres, then a very beautiful ridge path to reach Creu del Turon (crossroads on the hill). Then a steep climb to reach the ruins of the chapel located on the cadastral boundary of four municipalities (hence its name). The return via the Chemin Rural from Creu d'en Turon is very interesting. Marked path on private property: please respect the areas you pass through and close gates and fences behind you.
