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.

Beautiful scenery, different conditions from both sides. Departure to Caudies a dream. More information: https://www.quaeldich.de/paesse/col-de-saint-louis/

The Rébenty gorges offer a magnificent stretch along the stream of the same name. The Rébenty has its source at the Col du Pradel before winding through a canyon which separates the Sault plateau in two.

“Col de Saint Louis” from Quillan: 14 kilometers long and covers 350 vertical meters with an average gradient of 2.9%. From Caudiès-de-Fenouillèdes: 6.2km and 5.6%. The top of the ascent is 698 meters above sea level. In the 2021 Tour, Bauke Mollema won stage 14 and was the first to climb this slope. I cycle this climb in the opposite direction, twice as long, but less difficult
