CATHAR COUNTRY - REGION TO VISIT


 

 

From the Mediterranean Sea to the Pyrenean channel, from Massif Central up to the Country Lauragais, you're at the heart of a historical and natural heritage.

The Aude department offers an exceptional pallet of landscapes, natural sites: sandy beaches, salt lakes, torrents in the Aude valley, forests, shelfs, gorges, natural cellars. So many marvels all around of which you can take advantage of activities all the year(hikes, water sports like windsurfing or canyoning, cycle touring or mountain bikeurisme ou VTT, speleology ...).

 

You'll discover the medieval castles, these "Citadels of the dizziness", testimonies of Cathar epic, abbeys and Romanic convents, but also the Carcassonne medieval city, Narbonne the Roman, the prehistoric caves which mark out the routes of discovery for the lovers of the history.

You can also stroll under the hundred-year-old shades of the Canal du Midi, or choose to practise all the activities in mountain as in front the sea, in great natural decorations! The Aude depertment offers all the landscapes and the multiple possibilities!

 

And of course, It will be difficult for you not to give up to the invitation of the greedy pleasures, the great wines and the local gastronomy, at the heart of the biggest and of older vineyard of France.
