Gorges de la Frau

Highlight (Segment) • Other

If you are approaching the gorge from Fougax-et-Barrineuf, once you're in it expect a very tough hour of hike-a-bike. It's hard work but worth persevering because it's an incredible experience …

Cathar trail through the forest

Highlight • Other

Leaving the Gorges de Frau canyon, the Sentier Cathare (Cathar trail) follows a track through the beautiful and thick forest, parallel to the Rivels stream. The ground can be muddy, so you have to be careful.
