Olargues and the Monts de l'Espinouse
Olargues flaunts in the centre of the beautiful and wide Jaur Valley . The old town is nestled against a slope with an old fortress on top. From here you have a wide panoramic view overlooking the Jaur Valley and the surrounding mountains, where you can hike and bike at will, at least those advanced enough. But there are also options for those who prefer level roads . Along the Jaur and Orb Valley an old railway track has been transformed into a hiking route of about 50km long.
In late spring and early summer cherries from the many orchards are being sold along the roads.
North of Olargues lie the Monts de l'Espinouse and Mont Caroux (1091m) from where you have a beautiful panoramic view overlooking the Jaur and Orb Valley, the Mediterranean and even the Pyrenees.
