easy but hot this season

The historic city of Carcassonne, unlike the rest, is definitely worth a visit. The best thing to do is to walk around on foot to see everything!

"Carcassonne, located in the south of France between Montpellier and Toulouse, was founded in the 6th century BC by Iberian Celts. The Romans turned the hill into a castle by building a protective wall. In the 5th century, the Visigoths conquered the city, and in the 8th century the Arabs, who drove them out in 759. In the 12th century, Count Trencavel built a count's castle on the highest point of the hill on parts of the Roman city wall. Carcassonne became a central element in the defense system on France's border with Aragon. In the middle of the 13th century, the dilapidated wall was protected by a second outer city wall." With these words, the website for the television series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" describes the city that is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The 15-minute film is available – but only in German – in the ARD media library under the following link => https://www.ardmediathek.de/video/schaetze-der-welt/carcassonne-frankreich-folge-125/swr/Y3JpZDovL3N3ci5kZS83MTc1NzUw

The German-language television series "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity" uses short film clips to honor special sites from all eras and continents that have one thing in common: they have been declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. One of the episodes introduces the CANAL DU MIDI: "...the Romans already dreamed of a waterway between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. Powerful people and doers from Charlemagne to Francis the First failed to realize this idea, even Leonardo da Vinci tinkered with it in vain. It was not built until the end of the 17th century. The Canal du Midi is a technical masterpiece by one person, one obsessed with the idea, by Pierre Paul Riquet. ..."

"A 240.129 km long, 2.25 to 2.50 m deep waterway was declared a cultural monument as a "bridge" between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic with 328 structures such as bridges - such as the canal bridge over the Orb -, locks - such as the 7 lock cascades of Fonserrannes -, tunnels, aqueducts and 49 canals over streams and rivers." says the documentary from "Treasures of the World - Heritage of Humanity", a television series that brings culture-loving viewers closer to world cultural heritage sites with short film contributions (in German).

just a nice bike ride not difficult to do with the E bike you cycle over a gravel path from Carcassonne there and back I am not a sports cyclist but I cycle for fun short distances up to 30km and because I have to for shopping and to visit places so that the camper can stay at the campsite or camper place.

I am not a sports cyclist I cycle for fun short distances up to 30 km home and away. and because it is necessary for shopping and something to see in a city so that the camper can stay at the camper place or camping. but this was a nice trip with a terrace a chat and back to Carcason. there is only one disadvantage you cycle the same way back when you drive there. So on the way there you look left on the way back right or the other way around then it is solved.

I'm following up on Paul's comment: Yes, the canal is a great immersion in history and the region However, don't hesitate to make a few forays outside the canal... we made a detour via Revel going up the channel, then climbed a little on the mountain, and it was also very nice. In summer, the canal is very busy...
