Departure from Béziers (Hérault)
Walk on the outskirts of Béziers between nature and the city. Visit some of the city's remarkable points of interest. Always follow the water, in the shade if you choose the protected bank, passing through the locks (+ 2 footbridges) or along the Orb. The route is very easy as it mainly follows footpaths, with short sections shared with cars (be careful), and is accessible to children. It takes just over an hour at a brisk pace, or two hours at a leisurely pace.

The first section of a magnificent route, from Béziers to Carcassonne, which follows the Chemin du Piémont towards Santiago de Compostela: 100 km through the vineyards, pine forests and hills of the Minervois.
Fully signposted, alternating between red and white for sections shared with the GR® 78, and yellow and blue for certain sections that allow you to make the most of unpaved tracks and paths, closer to the historic route: the Camin Romieu.
Suggested route in five stages: Capestang, Pouzols Minervois, Rieux Minervois, Malves.
