CARCASSONNE UND LAGRASSE

XOff to the west of Occitania

The theme of this tour is through the wine fields in the Middle Ages. Carcassonne is world famous for its fortifications and the nature of the Corbieres is world famous for good wine. By the way, our Massif de la Clape is a sub-region of the Corbieres - a special distinction!


You should plan a whole day for this trip.
