Néfiach walks
Néfiach circular loop
This circular route in the hills above Néfiach takes you on a route through the heath along various paths and tracks. Starting from the ford, it climbs towards Caladroy without actually reaching it, as it descends back into the valley below Caladroy, passing close to Pic Haut, which can be visited as an optional detour.
Discovering the two Corbères
A superb getaway in the heart of Catalan heritage, punctuated by chapels, panoramic views and history.
Ille-sur-Têt - Montalba-le-Château - Rodès via old paths and canals
Hike to discover this low mountain range that was once exploited by humans. Numerous terraces bear witness to this past. Vines were cultivated here. Mechanisation marked the end of the exploitation of these wild and difficult-to-access areas.Yellow markings are virtually non-existent, and recent directional posts have been installed (observed at the end of January 2024). They are not really relevant. A GPX track is necessary on this route with its many paths.
Força Réal Hermitage from Corneilla-la-Rivière
You will cross dirt tracks and a few tarmaced sections, through vineyards, heath and olive groves... which will take you to Castell de Força Réal, at an altitude of 507 m...
No particular difficulty apart from the climb up the north face to the observation post.
Once at the top, enjoy a picnic and discover the breathtaking view of the Canigou massif and the Têt valley...
You can even see the sea on a clear day.
Return via some very pleasant paths...
In search of the boundary markers of 1258
Before the current border was established, Roussillon was officially part of Spain between 1258 and 1659.
Very few boundary markers from this original border remain.
The trail allows you to discover three of them, as well as a cave and an ice well; it also offers superb views of the Pyrenees and the Corbières.
Pic Aubeill
This circular route, marked in yellow, starts from the village of Belesta and climbs up to Pic d'Aubeil, then descends towards the sheepfold, the dolmen and finally the village.
The mysterious Touréze
This circular loop, starting from Latour-de-France, takes you around the Touréze massif, with visits to several stone orri dotted along the route. Southern heath and a mix of tracks, roads and paths.
From Castelnou to Camélas
A beautiful heritage getaway in the heart of the Aspres. However, pay attention to strategic points as this is an unmarked hike.
The starting point is at the car park (unfortunately subject to a charge) of the Sainte-Marie du Mercadal Church (listed as a Historic Monument).
Roc de Majorque in Castelnou
This loop offers breathtaking views of the castle and village of Castelnou from Roc de Majorque. It was from this highest point that several destructive attacks were launched on the castle.
Around Montalba-le-Château
A short walk around Montalba-le-Château to enjoy the diversity of the landscapes.
Puig Pedrous from Montalba-le-Château
A lovely circular of two hours starting from Montalba-le-Château and passing through Puig Pedrous.
Around Lake Caramany
A beautiful approach to Lake Caramany with views along the route.
The Castle, the Guillera Gorges and Pic Pedrous via Casesnoves
With Rodès Castle and the Guillera Gorges to start the hike, the diversity of the next section offers spectacular heath and rock landscapes in the midst of a unique mineral environment. It feels like wandering through a world of giants who have placed rounded blocks of rock, forming piles of monumental boulders scattered among the broom and rockroses that dot the area.
El Borboner, Cortal Grau, Sant Féliu and La Cogulera from Rodès
This hike in the north-western sector of Rodès mainly follows little-used paths. This circular route sometimes requires walking on poorly marked paths overgrown with vegetation (trousers recommended), and sometimes on well-marked paths or tracks (but as little as possible, as we prefer the paths). The "common thread" of the day is the almost constant view of Canigou. Some parts are not easy to walk, so they are reserved for walkers who are not afraid to "wear out their shoes".
Visorando app recommended.
The Guillera Gorges, the castle and the village of Rodès
This is a short, easy loop that offers beautiful views.
Pic Pédrous via a little-used path
Puig Pedrós is a classic hike in Rodès. We wanted to climb it via a path that is no longer used. It runs around the Vallagra Ravine. As it was poorly marked, if at all, we reopened the middle section of the path, before and after crossing the Còrrec de Vallagra, on the right and left banks (lots of brambles and Mediterranean vegetation). We crossed the stream (elevation 319) using tree trunks deposited by the recent floods. This part of the route is a bit adventurous and is intended for adventurers. The rest of the circular route is uneventful.The GPX track is highly recommended.
Ruins of the old village of Las Cases
This is a hike that can be done even in winter and in the sunshine. We are in a region with a privileged climate. This easy circular hike of just over 8 km takes you through fragrant and colourful scrubland vegetation with the majestic Canigou massif as a backdrop.
The abandoned villages of Casesnoves and Las Cases
We are between the former kingdoms of Aragon and France, a superb circular hike of just over 17 km that will take you to two abandoned villages and up to Puig Pedros and its border marker. A region that is always sunny, with a splendid view of Mont Canigou through the fragrant maquis vegetation.
Roc Majorque from Sainte-Colombe-de-la-Commanderie
Starting from the village of Sainte-Colombe-de-la-Commanderie, we will take paths through the heath to Castenou, one of the most beautiful villages in France, then on to Roc Majorque with a 360° view of the Roussillon plain.
Serrabonne ridge circular walk
This circular route goes around the ridges of the Serrabone priory in the Eastern Pyrenees. Starting from the priory, the trail climbs to the right towards the ridges, then follows them before descending back to the priory. Landscape of moorland and heath in the mid-mountains. The hike can be continued with a visit to the Serrabone priory in the commune of Boule d'Amont.
The Hermitage of Notre-Dame de Pène
A short climb on a rocky trail leads to an old hermitage in a superb setting with a beautiful view from the top.
Roc Rodon
A climb to Roc Rodon which, despite its modest altitude, offers exceptional views of the Pyrenees and the Corbières. After passing the Hermitage of Notre-Dame de Pène, a long ridge walk leads to the village of Calce. The route continues through the vineyards, leading to the Chapel of Sainte-Catherine before climbing back up to the ridge and returning to the starting point via a balcony path overlooking the Agly valley. A very varied and exotic route on the outskirts of Perpignan.
