First fortified in the Gallo-Roman period ~3rd–4th C. CE, it underwent extensive restorations in the 19th C. Set upon a hill overlooking the modern urban sprawl, the compact site is protected by ~3km of double walls &amp; 52 defensive towers (2); it’s 19 € pp to walk the ramparts/ visit the restored château, but free to walk between the rows (without climbing on the outer battlements). The enclosed town is very touristy, filled with trinket shops &amp; eateries, but also offers some architectural curiosities (3). Later, at nearby Trèbes, we walked alongside Canal du Midi, a ~360km network of navigable waterways linking the Atlantic (via Garonne) to the Mediterranean using locks, aqueducts, bridges &amp; reservoirs. The canal is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, created through the vision of Pierre-Paul Riquet during 1667–94. The Trèbes Orbiel aqueduct (4) was designed by Vauban in 1688 &amp; the town’s staircase lock dates from ~1674. #france #occitanie  #europe  #travel  #camperVan #nomad #roadTrip #vanLife  #unesco]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/454c8dc0-a345-4081-b75b-a5b5d6c597ed/cité-de-carcassonne-is-a-unesco-world-heritage-site-listed-as-an-outstanding-example-of-a-medieval-fortified-town-1-.</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/454c8dc0-a345-4081-b75b-a5b5d6c597ed/cité-de-carcassonne-is-a-unesco-world-heritage-site-listed-as-an-outstanding-example-of-a-medieval-fortified-town-1-.</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[ocdo@mastodon.nz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Upon leaving Château de Peyrepertuse bound for Carcassonne we took the D14, a narrow winding backroad between hills cloaked in forest &amp;amp; meadows, intermittently punctuated with small villages.]]></title><description><![CDATA[Upon leaving Château de Peyrepertuse bound for Carcassonne we took the D14, a narrow winding backroad between hills cloaked in forest &amp; meadows, intermittently punctuated with small villages. One such village is Bugarach, on the outskirts of which is a 700m path to Pont Romain, a single-arch stone bridge across a limestone basin on the Roman road linking the village to Rennes-les-Bains (1). Although the original was probably Gallo-Roman, it was destroyed in 1992 by flooding but faithfully restored the following year. What caught our eye was the trailside orchids, 3 of which were new to us. All native, first up is Neotinea ustulata | the  burnt-tip orchid, which can be found up to 2,400m elevation in the mountains of central &amp; southern Europe (2). The aptly-named Serapias lingua |  tongue orchid is found throughout the Mediterranean (3). Ophrys scolopax | the woodcock orchid is recognisably a  bee orchid given its morphology (4); it can be found in both the Mediterranean &amp; Middle East. We also re-identified Orchis mascula | the early-purple orchid. #france #occitanie  #europe  #travel  #camperVan #nomad #roadTrip #vanLife ️ #roman  #bloomScrolling]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/7ffffd52-84f7-4c28-8662-a1ecd29caf20/upon-leaving-château-de-peyrepertuse-bound-for-carcassonne-we-took-the-d14-a-narrow-winding-backroad-between-hills-cloaked-in-forest-amp-meadows-intermittently-punctuated-with-small-villages.</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/7ffffd52-84f7-4c28-8662-a1ecd29caf20/upon-leaving-château-de-peyrepertuse-bound-for-carcassonne-we-took-the-d14-a-narrow-winding-backroad-between-hills-cloaked-in-forest-amp-meadows-intermittently-punctuated-with-small-villages.</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[ocdo@mastodon.nz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[[1&#x2F;2] Roques de la Vila is a geological formation also known as Muralla (China) de Finestres | the (Chinese) Wall Of Finestres.]]></title><description><![CDATA[[1/2] Roques de la Vila is a geological formation also known as Muralla (China) de Finestres | the (Chinese) Wall Of Finestres. We followed online &amp; local advice to ️ at Puente de Penavera, a bridge NE of Estopiñán del Castillo, given the state of the dirt road. The 6.4km drive from our pitch in town took ~30 minutes. Although we sighted the formation ~4.5km into the hike, we first came to the former settlement of Finestres (1). It was depopulated in 1960 due to the filling of the Canelles reservoir; only one house, Casa Coix, is seasonally inhabited. A short &amp; easy signposted walk links the village centre to Ermita de San Marcos | the Hermitage of Saint Mark; this is the best spot for panoramic views of the ~840m long formation (2). Folding of strata ~100 million years ago &amp; subsequent erosion have created two primary parallel lines of vertical limestone that resemble a wall (3). Some of the formation is now partially submerged in the reservoir (4). #spain #aragon  #europe  #travel  #camperVan #nomad #roadTrip #vanLife 🥾 #hiking #nature]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/27eb0315-00c1-4400-907b-8c7516c1798e/1-2-roques-de-la-vila-is-a-geological-formation-also-known-as-muralla-china-de-finestres-the-chinese-wall-of-finestres.</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/topic/27eb0315-00c1-4400-907b-8c7516c1798e/1-2-roques-de-la-vila-is-a-geological-formation-also-known-as-muralla-china-de-finestres-the-chinese-wall-of-finestres.</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[ocdo@mastodon.nz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Invalid Date</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
