From Somail to the 9 Locks of Fonseranes

Don’t miss the 16th-century château nestled among vineyards. A place with historical charm.

Sail through the 160 m Malpas Tunnel, which cuts under the archaeological site of Ensérune. From the hilltop, enjoy panoramic views of the Cévennes and Pyrenees , and the striking geometric pattern of the drained Montady lagoon below.

Nestled along the Via Domitia, Colombiers is in the heart of Languedoc vineyards. Moor in its scenic half-moon port and visit the château wine cellar, whose boat-hull-shaped roof symbolizes 19th-century prosperity.

Navigate the spectacular staircase of 9 locks at Fonseranes,an engineering marvel on the Canal du Midi, and the third most-visited site in Languedoc-Roussillon after the Pont du Gard and Carcassonne. In summer, hop on a tourist train to visit Béziers.
