The "canal du Midi", architect Pierre-Paul Riquet's masterpiece, is the most famous water canal in Europe for its amazing measurements and for its peaceful surroundings. The idea of digging this channel linking the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean sea dates back to Antiquity but it was under Louis the 14th's reign that it has been built.
Along the channel, discover the countryside landscapes and farms of the 'Laugarais' area, the gentle slopes sprinkled with vineyards, the chateaux of the Aude area and the city of Carcassonne up to the Mediterranean beaches.
Highlights
- The Minervois and its vine-clad slopes
- The medieval city of Carcassonne, World Heritage Site by UNESCO
- And at the end of the towpath … the beach
