The Languedoc Roussillon region is ideal for people
who like to walk and caters for all levels of walkers. There are around
440km of documented walks representing some 168 hours of walking in
the region with over 80% of them being circular. The routes vary in length
from a modest 1km to around 17km. Each walk is graded for difficulty using a
range of colours, Green (the easiest), blue, red and black (the most
difficult). There are 19 green walks, 15 blue walks, 19 red walks and 9
black walks making 62 walks in total. All the walks have been graded and
signposted by the Fédération
Française de la Randonnée Pédestre |
| The walks cover various terrains and interests from
mountain to town and even cities. Each one is unique and many help unfold
the fantastic history and natural beauty of this spectacular landscape. |

The region benefits from a variety of wildlife, we have
deer, wild boar and bear not mention the rich and diverse collection of
birds including the spectacular Bunelli Eagle. In the mountains and on the
plains you will also encounter the rich and beautiful plant life. |
| Of course with a name like Cathar Tours
you should expect a visit to at least one of our magnificent Cathar
castles. |
