Explore the charm of Roullens, Aude, Languedoc-Roussillon

Sporty excursion where you will alternate between some rough climbs and pleasant passages in the woods at the shade of the oaks. The trail offers a multitude of landscapes: views of the vineyards, scrubland, hills, Pyrenees... Also enjoy the presence or traces of certain raptors and wild boars. Signs: Yellow markings and Orange Wild Boars From the sign in the village, continue up the D43 and drive past the parking lot. After leaving the village, at the fork, turn right uphill. Further on, leave the “Touloury” property on your right. On the plateau, you can breathe and admire on your right the Rouffiac and Preixan vineyards, then behind, the white vineyards of the plain and the Corbières in the background.  At the road, turn right: you enter an area of crop-livestock (cattle). At the "Boulbonne" farm, turn left. The residential buildings are protected from the sun by large lime trees.  Follow the fence on the left, this is a short climb. On the field on the left, the harrier St-Martin can often be seen (this grey raptor with black wingtips, flies like a glider at 2m from the ground to surprise field mice and voles). You may also see the lark, high in the sky, beating its wings very quickly and singing continuously. Very pleasant passage in the oak woods where you will enjoy this area of shade and coolness in summer.  Holm oaks and white oaks accompanied on the edge of the path by fragon (tall, very straight stem, small dark leaves, red balls). Cross the track which leads to "Lavax" and go up opposite. This path runs along the road D43 in the undergrowth. In wet weather, presence of wild boar tracks. Arriving on the road D43, take the track opposite and go down towards "Le Dégo". On the side of the road, notice the geraniums (pink-purple) and cistus (white). This area is often overflown by the circaetes whose cry will not leave you indifferent. Leave "Dégo" on the right and continue on the left.  This track was traced for the Forest Fire Defence. It is pleasant and in some places you can admire the view of the Pyrenees in the background and in front, a hill which shelters a private animal park.   50m after the junction leading to the property "La Soulette", there is a fork. Turn left onto a path descending through a coppice of oaks and strawberry trees. Leave the ruin (barely visible because it is covered with ivy) on the left and go straight ahead. It can be seen by the presence of cypress trees. Always go down the path.  Turn left to reach the brook. On the bank of the brook are two varieties of ferns including the scolopendre (long flat leaves). The path goes along the brook and by raising your head, you will see in this big dead trunk the holes of the woodpecker, the bird that gives the impression of making fun of us when he sings. The path goes up and crosses a rather high scrubland from where, in spring, the strong smell of broom is released. At the junction with the access path that leads to Bédounet, turn right and walk along the edge of the field on the grassy path that runs under the property. Observe the restored dovecote on the building and in the descent a view of the village of Montclar. The agriculture of the heights now gives way to the vineyards of the Malepère. On the right-hand side, you can see "Malfouich", a former agricultural property. The cypress hedge is quite typical of the crop protection against the wind. Once on the road, turn left and in the hollow, is built a stone building on which rests a rusty metal mechanism. It was the water point that the wind turbine was going up, later replaced by an engine that is now abandoned. Finally, a steep climb up to the village and at the crossroads, turn right.

This trail offers an exceptional and varied flora, several holm oaks and wild flowers to admire. A waterfall and two viewpoints can also be found in this picturesque landscape Signs: Yellow and the orange circaète eagle From the sign in the village, take the D43 downhill.               After a turn on the right, turn left for 50m/164ft towards La Salle. Then take the earth track going up. At the top, turn left onto the small tarred road. Leave the road leading to La Salle on the right and follow the path.            At the crossroads of tracks, continue to the right in the direction of the crest line along the vineyard. Viewpoint on the left on Carcassonne and on the other side on the place called "Arnauteuille" and the village of Montclar further to the right. The vineyard gives way further on to a thicket of holm oaks. In the undergrowth, there is fragon and along the path these cistus, blue carnations of Montpellier (small blue flowers, thin and tall stems), sweet peas (pink and white. Pass in front of the magnificent holm oak (Auzina in Occitan) where wild boars rub to get rid of parasites. The traces of mud left by the animals are permanent on the trunk. Further on, turn right and go down. Take the small marked path, more pleasant than the previous one. The “asphalt grass” (its name comes from the smell it gives off when you crumple it) colonizes the edge of the path (opposite). Turn right at the crossroads, the path goes uphill and ends with a small steep slope leading you to the arboretum. At the very bottom, cross the brook and don't miss this small detour of 30 meters which leads you to a waterfall, a cool and humid place, colonized by horsetail and also occupied by a variety of fern, "le capillaire" (Maidenhair spleenwort). Take the path again and go up to the road D43, cross and turn left for about 120m/400ft. Take the upward path which leads to the Pech de Gabarre. At the junction with the track, turn right and follow this ridge overlooking the campsite. A nice view on the left, over Limoux and its tile factory (the big roof). The path climbs on the left quite abruptly, then descends steeply with, in the hollow, a muddy part. Continue on the highest path in the undergrowth. Strong rise on a gullied path.                At the highest point of the route, don't miss this little detour to the left which offers a panoramic view on the Pyrenees. Go back to the forest crossroads and go down the gravel track (steep descent) which runs along the lower part of the cereal crops where the harrier often flies.                 At the river, turn right. A steep ascent to the village. A drinking water tap is available in the parking lot on the other side of the road. After taking a breath, you will be able to walk through the streets of the circular village called "circulade".

Undergrowth and views of the Razès Signs : Yellow and Orange Circle From the sign in the village, go downhill on the D43. Just before leaving the village, turn right and go down "Chemin de la Martine". From here you can see the Arnauteille campsite. At the bottom, take the road again, cross the bridge where the stream "le Grand Rec" flows peacefully. Go past the entrance to the campsite Continue to the electric transformer and 250m after it, turn right. Gradually climb through a copse of oaks. The Montpellier rockrose occupies the edges of the path. Higher up, at the junction with the track, go right into the undergrowth. The ridge allows you to see on the left, Limoux and the long roof of the tile factory, as well as its vineyards. On the right of the path, the agricultural and livestock landscape. Slightly to the left is the village of Montclar. Further on, at the beginning of  the undergrowth, at the crossroads, turn right onto the small shady path which is very pleasant in summer. At the next crossroads turn right again and go down the track (steep slope). At the bottom of the fork, turn left and cross a small bridge. Immediately afterwards, turn right onto a nice gravel track until you reach a concrete bridge to cross the stream "Le Grand Rec" one last time. Then turn right onto the small road going up towards the village.

On the way, take time to admire the castle, the panorama, the nature as well as the forests of Aleppo pines and Kermes oaks. Signs: Yellow Markings From the parking lot at the foot of the castle, take the D60 (avenue de Villefloure) in the direction of Mas de Cours. Take the third street on the left, called chemin Mingaud (trail in common with the "Pierres et Vignes - Peiras e Vinas" trail, a path linking the City of Carcassonne to the abbey of  Saint-Hilaire). At the fork, go right and follow the path to the plateau at the top of the village. The itinerary turns right, past the olive grove and turns left. You will soon reach a fork in the road (sign). Walk along the path to the right, up along a vineyard and then to the left. Reach another fork in the path. Turn left towards a very wooded area (viewpoint with an observation post). Pass to the north of the “Mont des Justices”. Then go down for about 500m to reach a crossroads in the pines. Possibility of a shortcut by turning right (small loop of 2.5km) to join the main route passing south of Les Justices. On the left, the large loop goes down to a road; follow it on the left for 30m, then go down into the undergrowth on the left by a path along the “Toron” stream. At the exit of the wood, carry on this same path to a crossroads. Turn left in the direction of Leuc, also taking the path "Pierre et Vignes- Peiras e Vinas"trail. Always follow the same track between woods and vineyards and back to the olive grove, admire the Panorama during the whole descent.

A breathtaking trail, take advantage of the many exceptional viewpoints over the woods and vineyards, then enjoy a panorama of the "Justices" massif and the foothills of the western Corbières and finish with a 360° horizon over all the massifs of the department! The name of the hike is in reference to the legend of Pierre Sourgnes, who spread terror in the villages in the 1800 Signs: Yellow markings with a triangle Departure in front of the town hall. Go into the rue des Sardes to the right of the War Memorial, along the "yellow rectangle surmounted by a triangle" signs. Turn onto rue Traversière, take the passage of the "Couvert du Roy" which will take you back in time. After a short passage on rue de la Mairie, turn right on rue Tortueuse, at the bottom of this street, turn towards rue du Passadou. The stroll carries on along a path that runs along the lower part of the village, after having passed the vegetable gardens, the first vines appear. At the crossroads of the D 304, turn left in the direction of the "Domaine du Bru". At the next crossroads, on the right, go down the gentle slope and pass the stream of "Préchanel". Go left on a semi-shaded path. Go along the small oak wood in the direction of the "pylône d'Eric" and enjoy the exceptional view of the woods and vineyards. Continue on the right on the Saint Martin path for about 650 metres, at the crossroads, go left and then cross the bridge over the stream "Quarantus". Go to the right, ford the stream "Le Toron", turn immediately to the left following the cement path. At the crossroads of tracks, in front of you, panorama on the massif "Des Justices" and the foothills of the western Corbières. Turn right (itinerary from the Chemin de La Cité to the Abbey of Saint Hilaire), after about 600 metres, go up the track on the left towards the crest line through a small wood. Surprise! 360° horizon on the Minervois, the Montagne Noire and its “Pic de Nore”, the Lauragais, the Malepère, the Haute-Vallée de l'Aude, a breathtaking view of the Pyrenees chain with its Monts d'Olmes, its Porteille d'Orlu, its Pérics, its Madre massif, its Canigou and finally the Corbières. Walk along the path the at the angle of a vineyard, turn right and cross the hedge. Go along the hedge on the left and you will come upon a track .Go up left , and at the hight of the water basin turn right and follow the track to the entrance of the village.

Entre sous-bois, garrigue et vignes, arpentez cette jolie piste, avec en prime de beaux paysages. Markings : Yellow lines and orange windmill  Start in front of the cemetery. Go left, then first right. Steep climb (smallest front chainring and largest sprocket) on the small asphalt road. Next to the isolated holm oak on the roadside if you stop for a while, the sight will reward you for your efforts. On the right, the vineyards with behind, the plain of Carcassonne and in the background the Montagne Noire, foothills of the Massif Central. On the other side of the road: below, the D43 which enters the massif, with above on the left, "La Lagaste", an archaeological site located on the route of the ancient Roman road, which is in the process of being rehabilitated. This 2000 year old route linked Carcassonne to Spain via Rouffiac, Limoux, Bugarach and the St-Louis pass. Further to the right, on the summit, conifer plantations, exploited plots of oak trees (firewood). In the background the Madres Massif and the Ariege Pyrenees. On the roadside, the scent that reaches you is that of thyme. Variant*: the path goes over a ridge in the undergrowth and then crosses the garrigue. After the scrubland, overlooking the village of Montclar. In the forest on the left, the track that separates from the forest is part of the circuit « Circaète » (sports…) Take in the field on the right, the track that goes down where the ruts will ask you for a little more attention. Exceptional view on the vineyard. On the edge, pyramidal orchid, daisy, asphalt grass, broom. At the level of the first vines, fruit trees: cherry trees, fig trees, walnut trees, plum trees. The large trees below as well as the talus slopes are home to several varieties of birds: blackbirds, chickadees, nuthatches, red tails, red throats, jays, wrens, etc.. The brook that runs along the path benefits everyone: trees and birds.  Continue straight ahead. Steep climb (smallest front chainring and largest sprocket). Turn right at the village. Portion of road for 800m/0.5mi bordered by white mulberry trees, a variety of trees planted on the Mediterranean rim and also visible on Villeneuve and Montreal. At the cypress trees, turn right and go up into the vineyards. Go straight ahead between the broom massifs and descend. Just before the first vine, the abandoned field is invaded by St. John's wort (its name is given to it by the tiny holes that pierce its leaves).  Further down, almond trees line the path at the top of the slope. Turn left along the stream and follow it. On the river bank: walnut trees, lime trees, ash trees, willows, cherry trees.  Turn right. Pass in front of the lavoir decorated with flowers and cross the village. While the plane tree imposes itself in the southern villages, you will notice that the chestnut tree generously replaces it here. Arrival. ARBORETUM VARIANT: Go down to the left. In the shallows, the dampness of the ground will certainly keep the boar's footprints. Turned and scraped earth is also an indicator of their passage. At the ruin, take the path opposite. Very strong descent! If you are not used to this exercise, it is better to put your feet on the ground and walk the 100m/330ft bike by hand. Low point of the route: arboretum. Realised with the help of the school children, it will inform you about the names of the different existing species.  The waterfall (marked out) after the small bridge over the river, will give you a little freshness. Cross the bridge again and go up the path to the last pine trees that you go around to the right. This passage in undergrowth is certainly the most beautiful place of the circuit and offers an exceptional perspective. Turn left and go up the small steep path. You come out on the big path on which the circuit of the mill continues.

On this little concrete path, and can be enjoyed by the whole family, you can admire a double panorama over St-Hilaire, the Aude Valley and the Pyrenees. Signs : Yellow Start at the crossroads, on the right of the "Circuit des 2 Vallées" sign. Take the "allée des Cèdres" and go up the "avenue du Mauzac". Then continue on the small road, at the Y-shaped fork, take  left until the pass. Turn left onto a track for 50m and on the right, go through a gate to enter the cattle park. Go along the fences and pass them (handles) to find a ridge path. On this ridge and for 1 kilometre, you will have all the time to admire on one side the Aude valley, the Malepère and in the distance the Pyrenee mountain and the Montagne Noire. On the other side, you will dominate the Lauquet valley with a breathtaking view of the Abbey of Saint-Hilaire and the Western Corbières. At the crossroads of the tracks, turn left onto the path that goes down the Coume Louvière valley. After the radio relay and the reservoir, go down into the village passing the church. Turn left into rue des glycines, then left/right into "rue du Moyen Age". Opposite, go down the stairs and turn right into "rue du château". Join the "rue de la mairie", turn left one last time in front of the school to return to the starting point. 

This loop offers a wide range of landscapes: plateau, cypresses, vines, plane trees, forest path, oaks, weeping willows and as a reward a beautiful view of the Montagne Noire ! Signs: Yellow Start from the parking lot of the Town Hall. In front of the sign, turn left and follow the signs. At the level of the covered market, turn left. At the fork, in the middle of the latter, a small building contains the communal well of 1788 called "Fontaine Grande", which, with the help of a wind turbine dating from 1899, supplied the village with water. Turn right and do the same at the next fork. Always follow the tarred road that climbs up, lined with oaks, cypresses and acacias. Once on the plateau, on the right, you will see a cypress hedge along a vineyard, at the end of which you can admire a beautiful alley of plane trees leading to the agricultural estate of "Barthe". Then there is a junction with the forest road where we find plenty of oaks. After crossing the stream, some weeping willows signal the beginning of the wood, inhabited by jays, buzzards and surely some nocturnal birds of prey that nest there. By following the markings, the trail will take you through a succession of meandering hills and descents where tracks of wild boars are visible. Along a cultivated field, entering the wood, after 50m/160ft, turn left where a long descent is waiting for you. At the farm of "Cantaloup", turn right and 200m/650ft further down, turn right again at a small calvary, going along a dirt track between the crops towards the farm of "Béteille". In the village of Alairac, turn right on the road, pass the post office and after the communal hall (foyer) , turn right on the road to "Font Biello" (GR78). At the level of the Jouvénes stream, discover the old fountain of the village of Alairac. Going up 200m/650ft, in front of the small calvary, turn left, then pass in front of the domain of "Sévély". Just after, leave the road to take the stone path. On your right, the "Rougeats" estate and in the background, a breath-taking view of the Montagne Noire. Going straight ahead, cut the tarred road as well as the cypress hedge. At the end of the road, cross the small "stream of Saut", then the domain of the "Moulin de Madame" and there awaits you the square bell tower of the church of Arzens.

Nice loop with passages in the vineyards and in the undergrowth. Signs: Yellow Markings with a rectangle on top Start from the “Avenue du Stade” at the level of the tennis courts and the equestrian centre.

At the crossroads, turn left then first right “rue des Troubadours” towards the old village. Continue straight ahead and cross the “Avenue Antoine Bardou”. Take opposite "Place du Château", leaving the church and the castle on your right. Then go down on the left “rue des Ecureuils” and at the bottom on the right along the “Fount Guilhen” stream and its gardens. At the corner of the fence, go up the track to the tarred road. At the tarred road turn left and walk along the houses. At the crossroads turn right and then immediately left “rue du Chenançon” and continue straight ahead. At the cemetery turn right towards the “Domaine d'Audène”. Continue on the track for 1.3 km towards the ridge, pass under the high-voltage lines.   At the top of the hill, turn left onto an earth track and pass between a power pole and a small stone hut. Go around the vineyard on the left to reach the undergrowth, which is very enjoyable in summer. You will then have a beautiful view of the village and its vineyard. As you progress along the edge of the woods, you will be able to enjoy, in good weather, a new viewpoint opening onto the plain with the Cité de Carcassonne, the Montagne Noire and the Pic de Nore. At the exit of the wood, take the track going down towards the road, at the level of the road turn left. You enter the village of Palaja. At the exit of the first bend, on the right at the first tree, enter the field and go along the edge. Then enter the woods, go along a meadow and continue your progress by going down a path. Observe a "marble column" on your right in the half-light. At the exit of the wood, leave the stone porch on your right and continue straight ahead on the road winding between the vines. After the bridge and at the top of the hill, just before the first crossroads, turn left through the vineyard but on the right side of the ditch towards the "Estagnère" estate. Going along the plot for about 600m, you will find on your right hand side a wide path in the middle of the vines. Follow it until you reach a grove of trees and turn left. About 120m further on, again on your right hand side, follow a small path going down through the vegetation. At the end of the bend, turn left on the steep hillside to reach the small bridge. Go up along the campsite. Arriving at the road, you can admire in front of you the "Priory of Saint Foulc". Return by the left to the village of Cazilhac while passing in front of the calvary.

The church of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine was said to be on the Plaine de Magdelaine. It is recorded from 943, but no archives make any mantion of it from the XVIth century. As of today it has disappeared completely.
