Moux walks
Circular route from the watchtower via Moux
A challenging hike, with no major difficulties, apart from the total lack of signposting or, frequently, numerous signs that contradict this route. The route follows deeply rutted paths, with loose gravel underfoot. The start crosses a pine forest devastated by fire, but after that it’s pure joy through dense vegetation, consisting of pines, holm oaks, boxwoods, junipers, kade trees, and the full range of Mediterranean plants – a feast of scents. Avoid doing this in summer or after a storm.
La Montagne D'Alaric - Roc De L'Aigle
At the gates of Carcassonne, the Montagne d'Alaric offers a superb viewpoint over the Pyrenees and the Aude plain. The ruins of the priories of Saint-Pierre d'Alaric and Saint-Michel de Nahuze, as well as those of the Métairie de Vidal, encourage us to reflect on the history of this mountain and the life that must have once animated it. Finally, the return journey through the vineyards of the Corbières region is an invitation to end this day's walk with a well-deserved wine tasting.
Alaric loop via Combe du Gravier
This is a great walk in the heart of the Alaric massif, where you can explore deep valleys and forests of holm oaks and Austrian black pines. Legend has it that the Visigoth king Alaric, passing through the region, gave the mountain its name, and some say that his treasure is hidden here.
A trip to the summit offers views of the entire Aude plain, the Corbières, the Eastern Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea if the weather is clear enough.
Alaric between valleys, ridges and splendid views
A beautiful circular route around Alaric, along ridges and valleys from north to south, offering views of the Montagne Noire, the Aude valley from Carcassonne to Lezignan, and the Corbières Massif with the Pyrenees in the background, surrounded by vegetation including thyme, rosemary, boxwood, pine and lavender. Very quiet paths.
The two locks at Puichéric
More of a stroll than a hike, this outing is ideal for families looking to get some fresh air.
Although the banks of the canal have lost some of their charm (many plane trees have been lost), there are still two locks to discover, including the Aiguille lock with its unusual sculptor.
Chante Coucou Cultural Trail in Comigne
Amidst vineyards and pine forests, discover works of art all along the trail.
Circular Signal de l'Alaric via the Congoust Gorges and Gabart plain
This is a challenging hike on beautiful trails to reach the Signal de l'Alaric, the highest point of the eponymous mountain range, where the view is breathtaking – literally for hikers who do the circular loop in the opposite direction.The descent that follows is challenging, over rocky terrain, with the last kilometre at a gradient of over 20% and permanent views of the Pyrenees and Corbières mountain ranges.The end, which is more relaxing but mostly on tarmac, simply completes the circular. The final variant, which is a little longer, reduces the amount of tarmac.
Stroll around the spillway at La Redorte
This very short walk for the whole family takes in a boat harbour, a spillway, a canal bridge, a boatman's stop, an aqueduct, a beautiful dairy farm and a small lake where you can fish for trout. A wealth of discoveries!
The Alaric ridges from the Col du Fer à Cheval
A circular route around the central part of the Alaric massif with beautiful panoramic views of the Corbières and the Pyrenees from the high points. The circular route starts on tarmac, then runs alongside the Corbières vineyards and finally follows the GR®36 trail along the limestone ridges. Feast your eyes!
From the Marseillette lock to Naudy
Discover part of the dried-up Marseillette lake, where orchards, vineyards and rice fields are cultivated, and its freshwater supply.
Around Montlaur
Starting from the small village of Montlaur, in the heart of the Corbières region, this circular trail is fragrant with the scent of pine trees and heath. The return journey takes you through vineyards, in a very Mediterranean atmosphere. There is a little tarmac at the end of the route, but this should not spoil the enjoyment of the walk.
La Bade Pine Forest and Sainte-Cécile Chapel in Tourouzelle
A walk through vineyards, heath and fragrant pine trees, allowing you to discover numerous drystone shelters and old sheepfolds built of dry stone, bearing witness to the activities of the villagers of yesteryear on the hillsides. At the end of the route, the Chapel of Sainte-Cécile, set in a very pretty spot, offers a pleasant place to rest.
Notre Dame du Carla
This hike, a little longer than Charlemagne's buttocks, takes you to a chapel and a viewpoint overlooking the surrounding area, all surrounded by wild vegetation.
Charlemagne's buttocks
This short hike takes you up to a vantage point where you can admire the village of Lagrasse and its listed abbey. The name "fesses de Charlemagne" (Charlemagne's buttocks) comes from a legend which tells how Charlemagne's horse stumbled, throwing him onto the hill where he landed on his backside.
Les Terres Rouges in Tournissan
A walk in the hills above Tournissan, surrounded by pine trees, vineyards and heath. Geology enthusiasts will particularly enjoy the section through the Terres Rouges, where you follow part of the Sentier Francis Lastenouse trail, which is full of informative signs. Not to mention the magnificent natural surroundings, rich in striking colour contrasts, which are sure to delight other walkers.
