Prugnanes walks

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.

Very nice circuit that will take you over grazing areas that are still used.The last part of the circuit overhangs the gorges of Galamus.

From the village, a climb to the foot of the Château de Quéribus on well-marked paths.See: practical information.The descent is quite steep, after waypoint (5).It's quite possible to do this circuit the other way round, and climb from waypoint (6) to (5).

Nature trail along the Aude river and urban trail through the villages of Campagne-sur-Aude and Espéraza.

This is an alternative way to the Tour de Tautavel from Cases-de-Pène. Advantage: sheltered from the tramontana wind. Disadvantage: sunny in summer.

Lake Cavayère is the place to visit in Carcassonne when the sun is out. The path around the lake is laid out clearly and is very easy to follow even with children (over ten years). The ever present lake provides a very pleasant setting.

This walk takes about an hour and a half to two hours including time to explore the castle. The way up is fairly steep but should be fine for people who are moderately fit.
