Characteristic suspension bridge over the Orb

Very picturesque village of Roquebrun

Snack and water point

The linguistic proximity of the "Pont Eiffel", which spans the river Jaur here at Olargues, and the low mountain range "Eifel" in the far west of Germany is no coincidence: The family of the designer - whose world-famous tower of Paris (named after its builder) is probably known to everyone - has German roots. The ancestors of the Eiffel Tower builder Gustave EIFFEL come from the Eifel town of Marmagen (in the Euskirchen district, North Rhine-Westphalia). The village square there - if you are interested, see the following hiking highlight https://www.komoot.com/de-de/highlight/1830307 - is named after him.

The Col de Fontfroide marks the break in the Haut-Languedoc plateaus with diving in the Jaur valley in Olargues.

The view of the heights of Fontfroide is magnificent, and the Salvetat is just as magnificent, a route with a bit of D+ but it is well worth it.

The Col de Fontfroide is more demanding on the second part, as for the tour of the Lac de la Salvetat, no major difficulty, some small bumps in the ass, but in a breathtaking setting as the lake offers such a lovely spectacle under the sun. Bring something to hydrate because in hot weather, the temperature can quickly rise, but the lake is not far away to cool off.

There's nothing devilish about it 😉. The bridge is ingeniously constructed, historic, elegant, and a practical connection.
