Saint-Laurent-d'Aigouze walks

Hike to discover two castles: the Château de Marsillargues, former castle of Guillaume de Nogaret, in the centre of the town, which houses a museum, and the Château de Teillan, a former fortified castle nestled between the Vidourle river, the Camargue horse pastures and the vineyards of the Marsillargues region.

Short walk to discover this tower, the outpost guarding the stronghold of Aigues-Mortes, standing on its road in the middle of marshes frequented by many birds.

A short half-day hike to breathe in and enjoy the Camargue and its treasures: horses, bulls, herons, storks, etc. As "denisdenim" points out, there is an alternative route to avoid the road at point 1: cross it and take the small road that passes by the Mas du Bourry farmhouse, keeping to the right to rejoin the main road and descend towards point 2.

Discover an authentic Camargue village with its customs and the statue of a bull ("Le Sanglier") at the entrance to the village of Le Cailar! A great, very short but very green hike through the meadows, with just a little bit of tarmac. Redone in January 2025, still as enjoyable as ever.

A beautiful walk to discover the banks of the Philippe Lamour Canal and the orchards (peach trees, almond trees, vines). Always in the sun, it is the ideal walk for sunny winter days.

A superb, easy and very pleasant mountain bike ride with numerous herds of Camargue horses and bulls.

In the heart of the Camargue, Aigues-Mortes unfurls its ramparts like an open book on history. This easy stroll invites you to wander among medieval towers, cobbled streets and salt reflections, where every stone seems to whisper tales of the Crusades and the marshes. A charming urban getaway, where you walk as much in the past as in the present, with the added bonus of a few lively surprises around every corner.

A pleasant walk among the peach trees. A calm and relaxing setting, especially in the meadows of Le Cailar.

A beautiful outing between the Rhône Canal in Sète, Les Fruitiers and Les Costières, as well as the meadows where Camargue horses and bulls live peacefully.

Take a walk through the marshes and along the edge of the Étang de la Marette (free visit but subject to timetables) before setting off to explore the streets and ramparts of Aigues-Mortes. This itinerary includes a visit to the Tour de Constance and the ramparts, which is subject to a fee but optional.

A walk winding through the hilly surroundings of the town of Vauvert and the Costières de Nîmes plateau, renowned for its wines.

This hike takes place partly along the water's edge and partly on trails near wooded areas. It allows you to discover the habitats of the Mediterranean coast. The northern part is a lovely place to watch the sunrise or sunset. The Bois du Boucanet is owned by the Conservatoire du Littoral. It is important to follow the marked trails (yellow markings) in this area so as not to impact the natural habitats and flora of these environments.

This route will allow you to discover the Bois du Boucanet with its typical Mediterranean habitats (pine forest, salt meadows, etc.). Depending on the season, you may see birds landing or flying around the Étang du Ponant. Important: the Bois du Boucanet is owned by the Conservatoire du Littoral. You must follow the marked trail (do not walk along the edge of the lake) to avoid damaging the natural habitats and flora and to avoid disturbing the horses that graze there.

A walk in white, green and blue: the white of the beautiful buildings designed by architect Jean Balladur, the green of the small but numerous parks criss-crossed by a multitude of pedestrian walkways, and, of course, the blue of the sea.If I were God, I would be wary of architects! They are the subversive instruments of the human race's secret project: to rebuild Paradise Lost.Jean Balladur

This hike offers two different atmospheres. The first part is a circular route along the edge of the Bois du Boucanet and then through the marshes bordering the Étang du Ponant, where you can encounter birds and horses. The second part, on the other side of the Vidourle, is an urban walk in the Ponant district of La Grande Motte, where you may encounter sea turtles, then through the town centre and back via the beach.This circular route can easily be split into two shorter walks.
