Fontfroide Abbey
To the south of Narbonne (at a 90-minute drive from Lunas) lies the beautifully restored Fontfroide Abbey, hidden in a peaceful little valley. The guided tour starts at the stately Cour d'honneur, through the Salles des Gardes and inner courts full of flowers, to the very elegant cloister and the abbey church with its magnificent leaded-glass windows. The medieval vegetable garden has been replaced by a flower garden with more than 3000 fragrant plants. Close to the abbey a hiking trail goes up into the hills, from where you can enjoy a panoramic view overlooking the abbey and the stunning scenery.
