  • CANAL DU MIDI BIKE 8 Night I WANT IT ALL 2021
    DETOURS IN FRANCE www.detours-in-france.com CANAL DU MIDI BIKING EXPLORE FRANCE AT YOUR OWN PACE Day 1: Arrival in Toulouse Upon your arrival in Toulouse, settle in to your hotel and freshen up, and then take some time to explore this lovely city. The capital of both the French department, and the larger Midi-Pyrenees Region, Toulouse is also the heart of Europe’s aerospace industry, home of both France’s Airbus Company and also a great attraction park, the Cité de l’Espace. Its world renowned university is one of the oldest in Europe (founded in 1229), and it was already the capital of the Visigoth Kingdom in the 5th century! A city with unique architecture made of pinkish terracotta bricks, earning it the nickname la Ville Rose ("the Pink City"), Toulouse counts two UNESCO World Heritage sites, the Canal Du Midi, and the Basilica of St. Sernin, which lies on the Santiago de Compostela pilgrimage route. Day 2: Toulouse to Castelnaudary 66 Km / 41 Miles You have a long, but easygoing ride today, as it is very flat, and almost completely on lovely, paved bike path. Pass your first locks and canal projects on route to the small town of Castelnaudary, built on the foundations of the original Roman town. It is hard to imagine the centuries of warfare incurred here, as you wander the lovely small streets, eventually loved by Catherine de Medicis, when, as King Henri II’s wife, she becomes Countess of the region. The port here is developed as one of the main stops for barges on the Canal du Midi’s route, with a large (7 hectare) water basin.

In summary, 43 sites were investigated involving 385 records and 45 dragonfly species. These records could be added to the regional database.

    Comité Départemental du Cyclotourisme dans l’Aude (FFCT) Deux Pieds Deux Roues - Délégation Régionale de l’AF3V Association Française des Véloroutes et Voies Vertes pour Midi-Pyrénées et Languedoc-Roussillon - 30 Août 2016 - Propositions pour l’aménagement d’une Véloroute-Voie Verte (à 80% en Voie Verte) entre Moux-Puicheric-La Redorte-Azille-Rieux-Minervois-Peyriac-Minervois et Caunes-Minervois (31km dont 24km en Voie Verte) - 7 pages - 1- Présentation générale du projet Nous demandons au Conseil Départemental de l’Aude d’aménager une Véloroute-Voie Verte sur, ou près de, l’ancienne voie ferrée Moux-La Redorte-Caunes-Minervois (31km). Intérêt Cet aménagement créerait une « transversale » reliant des Monts d’Alaric à la Montagne Noire, et croisant le canal du Midi et la Véloroute « Le canal des Deux Mers à vélo », et aurait un grand potentiel de fréquentation. Elle favoriserait à la fois les déplacements quotidiens des habitants (surtout entre Rieux et Peyriac), les déplacements de loisir des habitants, et les balades des touristes cyclo-randonneurs et randonneurs pédestres et équestres. Etant de grande qualité (80% en Voie verte) elle serait très fréquentée. Faisabilité Ce projet est réalisable car : 1- Le Département est propriétaire d’une grande partie de l’emprise de la voie ferrée ; 2- Plusieurs ouvrages (viaduc sur l’Aude et sur des RD, ponts) remarquables sont en bon état ; 3- Plusieurs tronçons sont déjà ouverts aux marcheurs et VTTistes suite à la création du « Chemin vert ». Exigences de qualité et de sécurité Pour une forte fréquentation, il faut sécuriser le plus possible l’itinéraire, en : 1- recréant une Voie Verte aux endroits où la route a pris la place de la voie ferrée (comme dans la traversée de Rieux), ou a cassé un pont de la voie ferrée.

    Trip description 4-day cycle trip from Toulouse to Carcassonne along the Canal du Midi Self-guided cycle tour along Canal du Midi: from Toulouse to Carcassonne in 4 days Destination France Location Canal du M idi Duration 4 day s Dif f iculty Lev el Easy Validity From M arch 31 to Nov 1 M inimum age 9 y ears old Ref erence M 0402 Ty pe of stay itinerant trip Itinerary This 4-day cycle tour along the Canal du Midi rallies two major milestones of the canal : Toulouse, the Ville Rose and Carcassonne, the medieval fortress. You ride quietly sometimes on cycle paths or the hauling path along the canal, sometimes on low-traffic country roads. You will cross the Lauragais, a large fertile plain surronded by hills that flourished on the 15th and 16th centuries thanks to pastel trade, which also brought prosperity to Toulouse. The village churches with their characteristic fortified bell towers are a heritage of this rich past. You ride through Castelnaudary, the proud capital of cassoulet, and the charming abbey of Saint-Papoul before arriving in Carcassonne at the foot of the impressing medieval fortress. Day 1 Toulouse - Toulouse - Montesquieu-Laurageais area Montesquieu- Laurageais area Bike ~30km Bike ~30km You leave Toulouse on a cycling path along the Canal du Midi and enjoy riding out of the city away from cars, lulled by the soft sound of the water. You reach the first villages of the Lauragais, an area where the landscape is dotted with typical flat bell towers like in the village of Montesquieu-Lauragais.

DE22 1GB [email protected] Abstract The Pyrenees are a young mountain belt formed as part of the larger Alpine collision zone. This excursion explores the development of the Pyrenean Mountain Belt in southern France, from its early extensional phase in the mid-Cretaceous and subsequent collisional phase, through its uplift and erosion in the Late Cretaceous and again in the Eocene, which led to the development of the Aquitaine-Languedoc foreland basin. One of the complexities of the Pyrenean Belt is that thrusting, uplift and erosion during the Pyrenean orogeny exposed older Variscan basement rocks in the central core of the mountains, rocks which were metamorphosed during an earlier event in the late Carboniferous. Thus, this orogenic belt also tells the story of an earlier collision between Laurussia in the north and Gondwana in the south at ca 300 Ma, prior to the onset of the Pyrenean events at ca.
