From the Mediterranean to the Pyrenees, the Aude Cathar Country possesses a variety of landscapes and famous heritage sites to satisfy the most demanding of tourists. In breathtakingly spectacular locations you will discover not only the Cathar castles but also the medieval citadel of Carcassonne, Languedoc-Roussillon's gem and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Magnificent Romanesque abbeys and cloisters wait to be discovered throughout the land and nature, not to be outdone, sends its beautiful pink flamingos to populate the coastal lagoons. You can linger in the centuries old shade by the Canal du Midi - another UNESCO World Heritage Site - or choose to practise any or all of the open air mountain and sea activities this many faceted region has to offer.

But, whatever else you may choose to see and do, make sure you let yourself be tempted by the gourmet delights, fine Languedoc wine and specialties to be found everywhere in the Aude.
