Beautiful view!

Everyone knows the Pont du Gard, but the Castries aqueduct, much less well-known, is definitely worth the detour (to say the least). A very beautiful hike (possibly parking nearby) done in bright sunshine in the early afternoon, which allowed us to be in a solitary and dry landscape, but where the impressive arches of the aqueduct unfold majestically. An appreciable tranquility in the middle of the past. Superb photos are possible, and the loop allows you to see the covered conduit bringing the water. Sometimes at ground level and sometimes on the arches (there it is no longer covered), it is obviously no longer supplied. The interest is to stroll afterwards (or before) in the village in order to see the "urban" part of the aqueduct.

The Castries Aqueduct winds through the bush landscape and offers beautiful walks in the hinterland.

A magnificent and impressive structure, numerous paths and hiking trails with trees and shade nearby

Redeveloped in 1987 by a small group of villagers (Association les Carrières du Bon Temps), the site also serves as the venue for numerous festivities, including a very famous annual jazz festival (“Jazz à Junas” festival) in July. In addition, since 1988, JUNAS has been organizing the Rencontres de la Pierre, where novices, passionate amateurs or professional stonemasons have been meeting for 24 years and exchanging the history, techniques and know-how of these wonderful stone crafts.

A really great atmosphere there. You can stay there for a long time and take a break at the stone table in the shade under the tree. It is worth it ..

Almost 7 km long, the Castries aqueduct dates from 1760. It was built by Pierre-Paul Riquet, also at the origin of the Canal du Midi.

A grandiose and magical place, forged by more than 2000 years of rock quarrying using an unchanged manual method, hundreds of cubic meters of stone quarried there were used in particular to build the Pont de Sommières, then later in Aigues-Mortes and Vigan .
