アルティグ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ18

シャトー・ド・ピュイローランへの登りは、標高697メートルのアルデュ山の岩棚にそびえ立つ、有名なカタリ派の城への登山です。急で根っこの多い小道は、日陰の松林を蛇行し、古い石畳の道と印象的なジグザグのヘアピンカーブのシステムで終わります。「カルカソンヌの五人の息子」の一つである、この保存状態の良い王家の要塞の城壁からは、ブールザンヌ渓谷と遠くのピレネー山脈のパノラマビューが広がっています。

Stunning

From Axat, it's a long climb, 18km. It's quite beautiful down in the gorges, then a few kilometers of fairly monotonous woods. Arriving on the plateau, it clears up but it's rural. The impressive view is worth it when you reach the pass. Going down there must be a blast, the tarmac is good, it's quite wide and there's little traffic. I went down via Escouloubre: the tarmac is bad, gravel, but the forest is enchanting! Why not go the other way, then, up via Escouloubre and down via Bousquet / Roquefort etc.?

My experience on this stretch was downhill, once I reached the top of the Col des Aychides. It is a narrow road with uneven asphalt, where you have to be careful, although I have to admit that I found it beautiful and very fun. Although there is a considerable precipice on the left, I was not scared at any time. You go through a couple of small tunnels dug into the mountain, which gives it a lot of charm. It is a beautiful stretch.

Pass on the border between Aude and the Pyrénées Orientales

Superb passage in the hollow of the gorges. You follow a refreshing watercourse which winds its way between impressive rock walls.

The climb is definitely worth it

climb largely achievable. on the other hand, you have to pay to get to the castle. arrival at the summit beautiful 360 view.
