Port-la-Nouvelle walks

Sainte-Lucie Island is a regional nature reserve, and dogs are not allowed. A very pretty walk accessible to all, on a very passable path. There are many extraordinary views to discover.

An easy hike that starts in the pretty little village of La Palme and forms a loop. The first third of the route climbs gently to the top of the plateau. The second part is relatively flat with a multitude of paths winding through the heath. The walk ends with a gentle slope, offering superb views of the sea, the Étang de la Palme and the old salt marshes.

This hike will take us through the Corbières to La Roque Traoucada, thetroglodyte sheepfolds of Plat de la Lause and Plat de Vabina, the milestones, theartesian wells of Jasse Rouge and the beautiful drystone shelters, with a panoramic view of the coast.

Hike through vineyards, heath and pine trees. During this walk, we will pass around several combs, which inspired its name. We will take the famous Cathar Trail, which we will leave halfway down to descend towards Roquefort. At the highest point, we can admire Roquefort at the foot of its cliffs, as well as the coastline with the sea and the Sigean Lagoon.

In the foothills of the Corbières, search for the ancient Roman roads and milestones left by the Romans themselves, and have fun deciphering what is written on them. Then stroll through the hills in search of the flora and fauna of these sun-scorched landscapes. Climb to higher ground and admire the view of the Étang de Leucate, watching the birds of prey in flight.

This is not a free tour of the Sigean reserve, but the overlook and views of the Peyriac pond are well worth the detour.

Gruissan is a seaside resort in Languedoc that has managed to retain the charm of its roots. This hike takes you on a journey of discovery around the Étang de Gruissan with a walk along the water's edge where you can explore the wetland ecosystem. A trip to the foothills of the Clape massif around the Capoulade estate offers enchanting panoramic views. Finally, stroll through old Gruissan and visit the Barberousse Tower to round off a wonderful day.

The Grande Capoulade trail allows you to discover La Clape from the Gruissan side, offering a double view of the Bages and Gruissan lagoons. This hike follows the marked route on site, which is different from the one shown on the IGN map.

Travel across this ancient island with magnificent views of the ponds of Narbonne. A family-friendly hike in the scrubland and pine forests.

A pleasant family ride with beautiful views of the Plage des Chalets, the salt marshes and flamingos, the vineyards, the Étang de Gruissan, the old town and the Tour de Barberousse. Ideal in the early morning, after admiring the sunrise over the Plage des Chalets.

This easy, short hike is a loop around the Étang du Doul. It starts in the picturesque village of Peyriac-de-Mer, located between Narbonne and Sigean. Wine growing, fishing and tourism are the main activities here. During the walk, you will pass the Étangs de la Saline, Étangs du Doul, Étangs de Bages and Étangs de Sigean. From the heights, you can admire a splendid view of Bages and La Nautique.

A pleasant little family hike around a restored salt marsh for everyone to enjoy and discover.

Wonderful landscapes with wildlife, flamingos, cranes, egrets, etc. It's a paradise.

When staying in Gruissan, Sainte-Lucie Island is a must-see place for a walk, with the added bonus of swimming at the Vieille Nouvelle beach.

Walk along the hillsides of the picturesque village of Caves, which takes its name from its wine-growing past. Through the heathland, among holm oaks, rosemary and frigoules, numerous dry stone walls and old sheepfolds bear witness to a pastoral presence that has now disappeared. During the climb, on a clear day, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the coastline from La Palme to Barcarès.
