On the track of Cathari

60,000 trees were planted formerly at the Canal du Midi in France to secure the banks. And until today trees in many places line the canal, which runs from Toulouse down to the Mediterranean Sea. They shade the towpaths and little streets, too, which lead you to countless cultural monuments: to cathedrals and palaces, to Roman and medieval buildings. The wealth of culture is faced at the Canal du Midi with culinary treasures. In this region there grows good wine and it’s home to an excellent cuisine. Pleasure has a long tradition here.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Cycling along the canals
  • World heritage UNESCO
  • Medieval Carcassonne
  • Bordeaux Vineyards
  • Toulouse – The Red City

Grade: Flat terrain along the canals. Mostly on separate bike paths, rarely on small side roads.
