Espéraza walks

Path of lights and colours: the white of the limestone cliffs, the blood red of the earth, the green of the meadows and trees, the blue of the sky and mountains, the scent of pine trees and the winds that carry our dreams far away as we admire the exceptional panoramas. Path of the mysteries of Abbé Saunière and his confessor of Espéraza: walk in their footsteps to the heart of their history and their landscapes.

Nature trail along the Aude river and urban trail through the villages of Campagne-sur-Aude and Espéraza.

A family hike accessible to all, in the Aude Pyrenees, leading to the Belvédère du Diable viewpoint, with the chance to discover the unusual Carach chalet along a constantly shaded route.

An unmissable hike in the Aude region, accessible to all, starting from Nébias and taking you to discover the enigmatic Green Labyrinth.

A beautiful, shaded hike in the forest of the charming village of Saint-Martin-Lys, at the foot of the River Aude. This route is well worth the detour, with a beautiful viewpoint over the Axat Valley at the start of the trail.

An ascent through forest, with beautiful stands of cedar trees. A pleasant ridge walk with beautiful views.

This is a relatively short, intense loop route at altitude, climbing Pech du Bugarach from the village via La Fenêtre.

Loop around Valmigère in the undergrowth, then up to the heights with a beautiful panorama of the Pyrenees and the Pic de Bugarach. The loop is marked with a descriptive sign in front of the town hall and marked in yellow. It is described in an anti-clockwise direction, but I recommend doing it clockwise, as the slopes are gentler on the way up (I did the loop in this direction). The signs indicate a time of 3 hours, which should be taken into account with breaks, as it is not difficult.

It's not the most interesting route in the massif, but it's the shortest way to quickly reach the summit of the famous site that became legendary in 2012, the Pech de Bugarach, the mysterious highest point of the Corbières massif, a foothill of the Pyrenees and a landmark for griffon vultures, which you're sure to spot.

This easy hike takes you through the woods above Belvis, alternating between footpaths and forest roads. There are some beautiful views of the region, as well as the Barrenc de Picaussel chasm. The chasm, located at the edge of the path, is very well secured (barriers and gates prevent accidents).

Walk along the Greenway and to the Calvary.

This moderately difficult route starts at the old Chalabre railway station on the line that used to connect Mirepoix to Lavelanet, now a greenway. It follows the Hers river, which feeds the Lac de Montbel, crossing two dams before returning to the old Chalabre station after passing through some woodland. It offers views of the Pyrenees and the Lac de Montbel.

In this remote corner, two hours from the nearest village, families dedicated to farming lived just a few decades ago.

Once you've conquered the first kilometre, this hike offers superb panoramic views. The path along the ridge allows you to discover beautiful holm oaks, white heather, cotton cistus and many other plants.

When the valley was unsafe, the men would retreat to the heights. The hills surrounding the Boulzane and Agly valleys are dotted with prestigious strongholds (Puylaurens, Fenouillet, Quéribus, etc.). And getting there was no easy task, as the Gorges de Saint-Jaume demonstrate.

A hike from a pretty little village on the Sentier Cathare GR®367, the GR®36, and the GRP® Tour des Fenouillèdes.A sense of direction is required. The reward comes at the summit, with its 360° panorama.On the way back, a visit to a large and beautiful cave is very interesting.

A beautiful hike in the Pays de Sault starting from Roquefeuil with climbs up Pic des Sarrasis and Pic du Midi offering stunning panoramic views.

Route proposed during Rando Razès 2025 (short loop). Easy, family-friendly circuit completed with Joëlette wheelchairs during the event. The only "difficulty" is the section along the road at points (8) and (9).

This splendid hike invites you to discover a magnificent forest with its springs, its view of the Canigou massif... and of course this truly remarkable beech tree: the 500-year-old Fajas d'en Baillette!

On the ridge line that marks the watershed between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, there is a fascinating interpretive trail on the geology and formation of these rolling landscapes of Razès, Lauragais and the foothills of the Pyrenees. Yellow + yellow and red markings for the section on theGR®®78
