In Sougraigne, in the heart of the Hautes Corbières, springs forth the Sals, a saltwater spring that has always attracted the attention of neighbouring populations.
Today, the Salicorne association brings together the surrounding villages around a common project. It invites you to discover this unique site, once frequented by many different people: glassmakers, jet miners, charcoal burners, woodcutters, shepherds, peddlers and, of course, smugglers and customs officers from the Ferme Générale hot on their heels.

Departure from Camps-sur-l'Agly (Aude)
A very pleasant hike, but best avoided in summer.
Beautiful views of Bugarach and the Corbières. Along the route, you can see the site of the old glass furnaces and taste the saltwater spring.
The hike is classified as difficult because you need to know how to find your way, read a map and/or follow the GPS track.
The GPS track and map are almost essential as there are many paths and the trails are not always well marked.
