This hike will take you along a new route updated by a village association that is reviving forgotten paths that once allowed villagers to reach the vineyards and graze their flocks of sheep. You will discover drystone shelters that were used to shelter from the wind and bad weather and, in the case of the larger ones, to store equipment for working in the fields.

Departure from Espéraza (Aude)
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.

A concrete marker marks the route of the Méridienne Vert at the foot of the listed bridge at Serres sur Le Rialsesse.Yellow markings are fairly common. Various directional posts which do not necessarily relate to the proposed hike.

A lovely walk through the forest, sheltered from the wind on days when the Tramontane is strong.
A challenging hike with a steep climb to reach the Belvédère de la Mousquière, but the view more than makes up for the effort!!!

A lovely circular discovery walk. A GPX track is required. Although there are various markings and signposts, these do not necessarily correspond to this circular route; furthermore, the IGN base map does not always match the actual terrain.
