Despite its modest altitude (596 m), the Pic du Pied du Poul is nonetheless an exceptional viewpoint offering a 360° panorama of the Mediterranean Sea, the lakes, the Corbières, the Aude plain and the Pyrenees. While the ascent does not pose any real problems, the second part is for hikers who are used to walking on stony ground where it can sometimes be very difficult to see where you are going.
