Discover the unique charm of Sauveterre, Tarn, Midi-Pyrénées

From basins to rapids , in the coolness of the valley … The waters of the stream Candesoubre reach the Thoré , coming from the Black Mountain with a difference in altitude of 600 m. This extremely active energy was used to run many mills , today replaced by some small power-stations. The route first follows a shady valley where nature is very important. The lovely stream of Candesoubre goes down from basins to rapids in the middle of rocks, in a cool forest atmosphere . Going through wild ravines , you can see and hear some other small streams . After the hamlet of Gourgne, the path is at the cliffside and follow the stream of Candesoubre to join the hamlet of Labasset.

Following the wooded valleys of chestnut trees and then of beeches, you will discover throughout the hike the rich traces of the past with the terraces of cultures, the capitelles (pastoral huts) and finally reach the summit.

A brief foray into the communal forest allows the hiker to catch a stealth gallop or a moment to look for mushrooms.

This hike is an excursion in the heart of the Black Mountain for a meeting with landscapes of a rare diversity. The view on all the Minervois and its gradient of hills, as well as on the Pyrenees will make you want to continue the adventure. This superb mountain hike will take you round the Sales plateau and onto the border ridges of the Herault and Aude. The rigorous climate on these high granite hills has favoured the formation of peaty bogs, beech woods and highland meadows: a wild and beautiful landscape. The ageless rock-lined tracks and wind-tortured beech trees are a delight and lead you through charming hamlets of stone houses which blend naturally into their surroundings: Sales, Lebrat, le Bayle ... Newcomers enchanted by the lonely solitude are slowly bringing back life to these hamlets which were the victims of the rural exodus. Moving on just round a rocky ridge you will come across one of the most beautiful views of the Montagne Noire: an incredible panorama of the Minervois hills rolling down to the Languedoc plains with, as a backdrop, the majestic summits of the Pyrenees towering over all.

This trail is located at the crossroads of the four mountain massifs, constituted notably by the imposing Black Mountain. Magnificent panoramas await you on the Thoré Valley, Caroux and Somail.

Let’s walk around the woods… An easy walk for families. This path goes through the Green Way(la VoieVerte)first for about 2kms . When you leave it , you take a small forest track-the forest is very thick- this track is a link between 3 hamlets in the South of Labastide- Rouairoux : Lafeuillade ,Cantignous et Fon de Santé. The tracks are inhabited by wild animals , particularly roe deers-you may see them , if you are lucky -, an important number of different species of birds who want to live in the quietness of the woods. On the way , you will see chimneys and roofs of ancient factories . In the 19th century ,Labastide-Rouairoux had an important industrial development with the building of many textile mills , weaving and dyeing factories .The industrial activity of the village influences the landscape of the valley still now . This industrial heritage remains an important indication of the industrialization of the valley .

An elevated and slightly sporty trail climbing the slopes of the valley, that creeps under the chestnut trees and winds on the slaty ridges. At the top of the Quiersboutou at 837 m/2750ft, there is a beautiful panoramic view over the hamlets of Castans, the Minervois and the Pyrenees Signs: Yellow Take the road along the top of the cemetery, pass the  (gite) and the lavoir and go through the hamlet up to the last house on the right. Go down an alley on the right between houses and gardens. It turns into a path and leads down to the houses of the Moulin de Bru. Turn left, cross the bridge, turn left again for 20m/65ft and leave the road to the right for a small path that climbs between heather and reaches a track. Take it to the left and join the D 9 at the hamlet of Escandelle. Take the road to the right and leave it, just after the bend, for an alley between the houses which, after two bends, becomes a path. The latter also has two bends and climbs gently up to the chestnut trees, then crosses the Triby stream, makes a zigzag and continues to a track. Cross it and walk up along the fence of the telephone relay on 15m/50ft. Leave the path just before the old wild pear tree and turn right on the ridge path, between ferns, broom and rocks up to the top of Quiersboutou where a large cairn (heap of stones) stands. Go downhill, off the path, following the cairns and the markings on the ground. Pass under the power line and reach a pass above the hamlet of Serremijeanne. Cross a grassy path with few marks and 50m/165ft further on, spot on the right a slope which goes down while sneaking in the middle of broom. Follow it through the chestnut groves until you reach a dirt track, which you follow on the right for 50m/165ft and then turn left onto the tarred road going down to the hamlet of Thérondel-Bas. Go down on the left along the house and reach the river. Cross the bridge and go up opposite. At the end of the road, turn right for 50m/165ft only. Leave the track on the left for a path that climbs quickly with a steep slope. It reaches the D 189. Take the last steep path opposite up to the tarred road of the hamlet of Bourdials. Follow it on the right, at the end of the asphalt continue straight ahead by the path in undergrowth; it passes under the hamlet of Raissac and leads to the D 9. Turn right onto 50m/165ft then left the path going up to the parking lot of Cayac.

Castans, village of the Montagne Noire, is perched at the top of the Clamoux valley, where it spreads out in hamlets clinging to its flanks. As its name suggests, it is the land of the chestnut tree. It is a village nestled in the vegetation with dry stone walls, bridges, terraces and chestnut groves. Signs: Yellow markings Departure from the Cayac parking lot in Laviale (Castans). Go up by the tarred road. At the first junction, go down on the right by the stairs, then turn left. We go up gently in the undergrowth. At the top, under an overhanging house, turn right until you reach the Cloutels stream. Cross it by a bridge made of two imposing stones and turn right at the first junction, then left at the second. At the next junction (La Goussatiéro), follow the path that gently descends towards La Clamoux to where it receives the stream of Aiguebelle. Cross the river by a wooden footbridge and go up opposite to the track. Turn right for 300m. Leave it on the right for a path that goes down, passes the ruins of Perga-Bas and joins the Réalpo stream. Cross the stone bridge and carry on for 800m, then take a small path on the right which descends for 100m and goes up on the left to Quintaine. In the hamlet, turn right onto a paved path that runs down along a garden, crosses the road and continues to Lafargue. Take the road on the left to cross the hamlet and cross the river. Go up on the other bank, cross the road and climb up in front of the chapel. Continue on the grassy path that joins the road. Take it on the right and cross the hamlet of Laviale passing in front of the fountain-lavoir and its strange calvary, then up past the town hall. After the inn, go up to the right to find the parking lot.

From forest tracks to stony paths, this course explores the heights of Pont de l'Arn where the gentle slopes of the plateau are suddenly cut into steep valleys. From forest tracks and stony paths, this circuit wends its way through the heights above the Pont de l’Arn where the gentle slopes of the plateau are slashed with steep valleys. The importance of water is everywhere apparent, and has been put to good use. Rain and fog have encouraged the growth of the tall trees that contribute so much to the scenery. Douglas firs, more than 30 metres tall, line the horizon of the plateau. Despite the importance of forestry, raising animal livestock is also still a significant activity in this area: vast pastures flourish in the rainy climate and have been an important source of revenue for beautiful 19th century farms such as Artigues. There are also hydro-electric plants which exploit the energy produced by the strong waters of the Bouyssou and Arn Rivers. Flowing steeply downhill, these rivers have made deep indents in the hard rock plateau. The Banquet gorges, hollowed out by the River Arn in this granitic area, is one of the natural curiosities of the region, both for its rugged landscape as for its varied flora.
