The Devil's Belvedere
A family hike accessible to all, in the Aude Pyrenees, leading to the Belvédère du Diable viewpoint, with the chance to discover the unusual Carach chalet along a constantly shaded route.
On the banks of the River Aude
Nature trail along the Aude river and urban trail through the villages of Campagne-sur-Aude and Espéraza.
The Green Labyrinth and the Nébias Nature Trail
An unmissable hike in the Aude region, accessible to all, starting from Nébias and taking you to discover the enigmatic Green Labyrinth.
Around Saint-Martin-Lys
A beautiful, shaded hike in the forest of the charming village of Saint-Martin-Lys, at the foot of the River Aude. This route is well worth the detour, with a beautiful viewpoint over the Axat Valley at the start of the trail.
Circular trail of the Couleurs de Rennes-le-Château starting from Espéraza
Path of lights and colours: the white of the limestone cliffs, the blood red of the earth, the green of the meadows and trees, the blue of the sky and mountains, the scent of pine trees and the winds that carry our dreams far away as we admire the exceptional panoramas.
Path of the mysteries of Abbé Saunière and his confessor of Espéraza: walk in their footsteps to the heart of their history and their landscapes.
The Crête de Bouichet circular from Fa
A circular aerial loop offering superb views of the mountains surrounding Quillan and Nébias and two villages, Fa and Rouvenac, with very discreet charms that are worth discovering. A small plateau with aerial solitude: pure bliss.
Grand tour of Montsec from Montazels
Walk in the hills above Montazels facing Rennes-le-Château and Pic de Bugarach.
The Barrenc de Picaussel chasm from Belvis
This easy hike takes you through the woods above Belvis, alternating between footpaths and forest roads. There are some beautiful views of the region, as well as the Barrenc de Picaussel chasm. The chasm, located at the edge of the path, is very well secured (barriers and gates prevent accidents).
Puilaurens Castle
An easy hike, partly through the woods, suitable for families. Most of the hike is on a track. You can visit the castle (check opening times). It is closed in winter.
La Serre des Aiguilles, viewpoint overlooking Puilaurens Castle
This short forest hike will take you to the top of a hill with a magnificent view of Puilaurens Castle. It is an interesting addition to a visit to the castle.
Le Pech du Bugarach from Bugarach
This is a relatively short, intense loop route at altitude, climbing Pech du Bugarach from the village via La Fenêtre.
Pic de l'Ourtiset
This route takes you through an exceptional site with its mountain landscapes, fauna and flora. From the summit, you can see the whole of the Pays de Sault, the Ariège and Catalan Pyrenees and, if visibility is good, the Pic de Bugarach above the Carcassonne plain and the Montagne Noire.
Tour of Donezan
This hike is best done at the end of October. If the weather is favourable, the "French Quebec" will dazzle you with its autumn colours. But there's nothing to stop you coming back in spring or summer. There are some beautiful views of the plateau and its villages: Rouze, Mijanes, Artigues, Le Pla, Le Puch, Quérigut and the peaks overlooking Donezan. The first half of the route follows the Vauban trail.
