Casteilのおすすめライド

Start of a nice varied walk.

A very pleasant route in summer thanks to the coolness and the constant presence of the Saint-Vincent River, which flows down from the Conques du Canigó. The atmosphere of these gorges and the roar of the waterfalls will enchant you. Be careful, as this steep trail carries a risk of falling rocks and boulders. Follow the signs. Do not use during storms, rain, or flooding. Cross the stream via a ford at the second waterfall. Rocky path. Hiking boots are strongly recommended. Note: The trail is closed from September 30th to April 1st (municipal decree in effect).

Nice tourist town

This ancient trading town, the capital of Conflent, has preserved some beautiful traces of its history and its status as a defensive town. Examples include the ramparts and the Viguerie Tower, built by the Count of Cerdagne in the 11th century and subsequently reinforced by Vauban's fortifications in the 17th century.

Villefranche-de-Conflent is a town with an exceptional heritage: from the Middle Ages to the present day, time has left in its stones the marks of the men who built, conquered, or lived there. More than any other, Vauban, the "wanderer of the Sun King," has left his mark here.

The Col de Jou from Villefranche de Conflent is a climb in the French Pyrenees. This climb is 11.4 kilometers long and has a positive elevation gain of 687 meters. The Col de Jou from Villefranche de Conflent has an average gradient of 6%.
