Tips from the Community
Nice views, but at the end of the path at the intersection with the forest path, it is better to go back down the forest path instead of turning right because the path becomes completely unusable, even by mountain bike in my opinion (overgrown with vegetation on the descent)

A very nice cafe where you can stop for a coffee or a soda. You can also eat a little something to regain energy.

Mirepoix is a place well worth seeing, with a town center full of half-timbered houses with rows of shops. It's very busy when it's market day! You can see more of the beautiful houses without the market.

Also known as “Versailles of the Pyrenees”, Château Lagarde is the largest in Ariège. Built in the 14th century, it was abandoned at the end of the First Empire. Despite the looting and the resale of its stones, it has still stood for 700 years. These ruins bear witness to the great history of Languedoc.

This superb so-called semi-rock church has three levels. These Romanesque frescoes and its troglodyte appearance give this 10th century religious building a special place. The place is more splendid.
