July 4, 2023,Le Cabardès depuis Mazamet

A short tour of the Aude Cabardès from Mazamet and the "Route de Carcassonne". Descent to Mas-Cabardès then climb to Pradelles-Cabardes with the possibility of extending the circuit to the Pic de Nore. Beautiful landscapes guaranteed. Circuit however requiring a minimum of training.
