The Cathar Fenouilledes country train, the Red Train, runs along a railway between Rivesaltes in the Pyrenees Orientales ans Axat in Aude, dignified heritage from the City of the South and a radial relationship between Carcassonne and Rivesaltes.
Along the way you can see numerous and remarkable works of art as it winds its way through valleys and tunnels: Flirting languidly with the rivers Agly and Aude, it reveals the rocky countryside, sprinkled with vineyards on the mountainside, dominated by many notables sites (The Catlar Castle at Queribus, The Tour of Far, the relay station of froça real...) before reaching the forest at the end of an audacious railway journey. One must savour this changing countryside and the villages that punctuate the trip. Without forgetting the spectacular arrival on the viaduct opposite the Cathar Castle of Puilaurens or the horseshoe descent to Axat, with imposing tunnels.
Opens: 60km of railway journey awaits you: Come and discover the countryside composed of vineyards, mountains and forests, in Aude and the Pyrenees-Orientales, between Axat and Rivesaltes/Espira de l'Agly. We offer you one day rides, half day rides or rides of approximately 2 hours.
