Circular of the Last Cathar stronghold in Maury
Hike through the Maury vineyards with panoramic views of the valley and unusual views of the Château de Quéribus.
The ridge of the Serre du Grau de Maury
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.
