It is the Perfect tour for nature, heritage and wine lovers… there is some breathtaking landscape and I will tell you more about the Cathars…

This tour has some easy walk except at Minerve where for those who wants to visit everything, you need good walking shoes and the path is steep, accessible to people who are used to walk.

We can lend 4 walking sticks.

Itinerary

Lastours castles belvédère. In the morning discover the Lastours Castles, breathtaking view from the belvedere. The ruined castles sit on a rocky spur above the village of Lastours, isolated by the deep valleys of the Orbiel and Grésilhou rivers.  (we do not do the hiking)
