‘Balades Fraîcheur’ walks

Go on a refreshing walk in the summer!

It’s summer, it’s hot, much too hot to go wandering around in the scorching sun.

But you’d still like to go for a summer walk to explore new places. So what are you going to do? Go on one of the ‘Balades Fraîcheur’ walks!
This unmissable event in the Montagne Noire organises walks in refreshing, cool places every Tuesday in July and August. These walks were created especially for ‘Balades Fraîcheur’, and they will take you along shaded footpaths, through mountain forests, into the undergrowth… so you’re sure to stay cool! For each date there is a unique walk with different levels of difficulty (from easy to intermediate) and different places to explore. Take the time to read the technical details (altitude difference, distance, duration, etc.) to find the walk that suits you best.

These walks in the Montagne Noire are also an opportunity to meet the locals.
‘Balades Fraîcheur’ is a great experience and it’s also completely free!

Go on one of the ‘Balades Fraîcheur’ guided walks

Well aware of the potential of the local area for walks and the abundance of places to cool off during heatwaves, the Montagne Noire federation of municipalities decided to launch this unmissable summer event: ‘Balades Fraîcheur’ walks

‘Balades Fraîcheur’ was created in 2014 to encourage tourists and locals to explore the Montagne Noire thanks to routes through shaded areas. On these guided walks, you’ll learn all about life in this massif, the foothills of the Massif Central.

The Montagne Noire federation of municipalities now has a member of staff devoted to organising the ‘Balades Fraîcheur’ walks and who also acts as one of the guides for these walks. Volunteers who know the Montagne Noire area very well also offer their services as guides.
