Departure from Les Cammazes (Tarn)
There are no signs indicating this remnant of a powerful Cathar fortress where three hundred Cathar perfects took refuge in 1209. All that remains is a tower and an intact Romanesque gate marking the entrance to the castrum. This walk along the Rigole de la Montagne and Sor rivers will reveal the entrance to the hidden path.

This hike alternates between beech, oak and chestnut forests and cattle pastures on the hillsides. The elevation gain is gentle, but the beautiful descent through the woods after Le Montagnet can be difficult in wet weather. Spring and late autumn are the best times to enjoy this route.

Departure from Bram (Aude)
Starting from the Circulade in Bram (a lovely warm-up ride through this unique and well-preserved heritage site), this route follows the path of an old railway line that once linked Bram to Mirepoix and Lavelanet, passing through the charming countryside of the Razès. The section between Bram and Mirepoix is fairly easy for all types of bike (a hybrid bike is best suited), and its high-quality surface is fairly new. However, thesecond section from Moulin Neuf to Lavelanet, which is older, is best tackled on a mountain bike.

Part3 of the ‘Les Collines du Vent’ route:
A heritage-themed stage on the Collines du Vent featuring two fairly well-preserved medieval villages: Mireval-Lauragais and Laurac. And, as always, spectacular paths opening out onto a rolling landscape of countryside and hills covered in fields and pastures.
A spectacular and iconic online route through the Lauragais region, stretching 48.2 km, the “Collines du Vent” links Avignonet-Lauragais and Fanjeaux. Dotted across these first hills of the Piège are numerous windmills, making the most of the generous winds that blow alternately from the Mediterranean (the autan or marin) and the Atlantic (the cers). The view stretches far beyond the hills, towards the Pyrenees and the Montagne Noire. Eleven information boards provide details about the local heritage.
