Along Lake Salonite, you can observe many salt deposits resembling large white pyramids. It is the place of salt marshes and this industry is thriving here.

Towers and ramparts of Aigues-Mortes

Highlight • Castle

Aigues, also spelled Aix or Egue, means water in Latin. The town of Aigues-Mortes is very close to the Camargue Regional Natural Park, known in particular for its numerous brackish marshes (a mixture of seawater and freshwater). The town is now a popular tourist destination. You can visit the interior of the magnificent fortified walls. In the Middle Ages, many canals led directly from the town to the Mediterranean Sea, making Aigues-Mortes an important port. It was from here that, following a vow, Saint Louis, King of France, decided to recapture the tomb of Christ from the Infidels and launched the First Crusade. He embarked from Aigues-Mortes on August 25, 1248. A statue in the town center is dedicated to him.

Carbonnière Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

The “Tour Carbonnière” was formerly used as a watchtower and defense tower for the only road that then connected the mainland with Aigues-Mortes, which in the 13th century was still situated on a difficult-to-access lagoon.

July 12, 2026,Les Plages Gardoises et Aigues-Mortes — Parc Naturel Régional de Camargue

Nice route but one that deserves real updates! In Le Grau du Roi, the itinerary passes through a road forbidden to bicycles, the "vtt path" that leads out of the Via Rhona is simply dangerous (better to stay on the Via Rhona until the bridge) and overall, after the Tour Carbonnière, the route sorely lacks interest before returning to the …
