                A hike from a pretty little village on the Sentier Cathare GR®367, the GR®36, and the GRP® Tour des Fenouillèdes.A sense of direction is required. The reward comes at the summit, with its 360° panorama.On the way back, a visit to a large and beautiful cave is very interesting.

                A very pretty route that takes you through areas still used for grazing and to Pech Auroux, offering a 360° view of the Corbières to the north, the Fenouillèdes to the south and Bugarach to the west. The last part of the route overlooks the Gorges de Galamus.

                The ruined sheepfolds of La Couillade and Campeaux            
            
        
                In this remote corner, two hours from the nearest village, families dedicated to farming lived just a few decades ago.            
            
            
    
                
                Saint-Jaume Gorges and Fenouillet Fortresses            
            
        
                When the valley was unsafe, the men would retreat to the heights. The hills surrounding the Boulzane and Agly valleys are dotted with prestigious strongholds (Puylaurens, Fenouillet, Quéribus, etc.). And getting there was no easy task, as the Gorges de Saint-Jaume demonstrate.

                The Pech de Bugarach via the shortest route            
            
        
                It's not the most interesting route in the massif, but it's the shortest way to quickly reach the summit of the famous site that became legendary in 2012, the Pech de Bugarach, the mysterious highest point of the Corbières massif, a foothill of the Pyrenees and a landmark for griffon vultures, which you're sure to spot.

                The dolmens of Trilla            
            
        
                On the heights between Ansignan and Lac de Caramany, the village of Truilla clings to its granite mountain. The first inhabitants used the boulders scattered across the area to build their tombs. The trail winds through this landscape of ridges and granite chaos, connecting two of these dolmens lost in the heart of the vineyards.
Recent information: fences have been installed between points 6 and 7, preventing access.

                The ridge of the Serre du Grau de Maury            
            
        
                An exceptional hike, but:
- the 6 km ridge walk from Grau de Maury to La Quille.
- the route passes close to steep cliffs and includes a section of rock climbing, so it is strongly advised against for people who are prone to vertigo.
Only experienced hikers in good physical condition and accustomed to rocky terrain can complete this hike safely.
GPX track essential. Be prepared to turn back if necessary.

                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.
