Cathar Castles Trail
14 days guided walking in the Languedoc, France, travelling inland from the coast to finish in Foix. There are many castles to see, vineyards, gorges, forests, ridges, small villages and market towns. A very pleasant and historic route with accommodation in hotels and gite d'etapes.

Canal du Midi - Cycling
A few people have reminded us of the guided cycling trip along the Canal du Midi that we had talked about a few years ago. This starts in Toulouse and meanders 250km down to the Mediterranean. Mostly on towpaths, some tarmacked, some gravelled, some more rustic, it is almost flat, shady and traffic-free. As a guided cycling holiday it takes five days and is best done on a mountain bike or something with fairly chunky tyres. If there is sufficient interest we will look into costs and sourcing bikes. Let us know if you are interested.
