Ch\u00e2teau de Roquefixade<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cathar fortress <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A site steeped in history and an exceptional panorama!<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Clinging to a sheer cliff over 900 meters above sea level, the Ch\u00e2teau de Roquefixade dominates the Lavelanet valley and the Pays d’Olmes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less well known than Monts\u00e9gur, this Cathar site offers an equally spectacular ambience, with the added bonus of rare tranquillity and panoramic views of the Ari\u00e8ge Pyrenees.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A hike <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Easy <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A 30-45 minute climb from the village provides easy, pleasant access to the site !<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The trail starts in the heart of the village of Roquefixade, with its pretty stone houses. It climbs through the forest before leading to the ridges. Reaching the ch\u00e2teau is well worth the effort, but is accessible to the whole family, with safe passages and numerous viewpoints along the way. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A Panorama <\/p>\n\n\n\n

breathtaking<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Plateau de la Calm: unforgettable views on foot or by bike!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Accessible by hike or mountain bike, the Calm plateau (4 km round trip, 230 m ascent) is one of the most beautiful views of Roquefixade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the village, a path leads to an orientation table offering spectacular views of the Tabe massif, the Lesponne valley and Monts\u00e9gur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The climb continues up a steep, narrow path to the fortress. At the top, a 360\u00b0 panorama awaits you – even more magical at sunset. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Lac de Foix campsite is only 18 km from this wonderful site! For more information on the Roquefixade site: https:\/\/www.pyreneescathares.com\/decouvrir\/sur-la-route-des-chateaux\/forteresse-de-roquefixade\/<\/mark><\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
