몽테스키외 데 알베르 최고의 러닝 경로

The small lake of Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts is a great place for MTB and e-bike riders looking for a scenic and peaceful route. The proximity to the Pyrinexus and EV8 offers a wide variety of routes, from relaxed routes to challenging mountain trails, all in a natural setting perfect for taking a break by the water and enjoying nature.

EuroVelo 8 (EV8): Also known as the Mediterranean Route, the EV8 passes very close to Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts. It is ideal for cyclists who prefer longer, more connected routes, as this route runs along the entire European Mediterranean coast. The section in this area is relatively flat, making it suitable for any level.

Although the castle is private and not always accessible to the public, the interior is known to be richly decorated with luxurious details such as high ceilings, ornate fireplaces, and grand staircases. The halls and bedrooms reflect the opulent style of the Belle Époque.

The castle is surrounded by extensive gardens designed in a formal French style, with fountains, ponds, and tree-lined walks. These gardens were carefully designed to complement the grandeur of the main building.

The Château d'Aubiry was built between 1893 and 1900 by the Danish architect Viggo Dorph-Petersen, who was very active in the Pyrénées-Orientales region. It was commissioned by Justin Bardou-Job, a wealthy tobacco industrialist, as a family residence.

It was built by the Lords of Saint Cristau, who later took the name of Montesquieu. The keep forms an imposing building with a width of 16 metres and a length of 22 metres. The castle was protected by a wall 12 m high. From the top you have a great view of the plains of the region.

Magnificent view ! It’s worth going up there 🤩🤩

Infernal ascent, when the trees disappear and you seem to be at the top, the pit is waiting for you. Reserve your strength because the last kilometer, despite being on asphalt, is HELL!
