Canal du Midi to Émeraude

Highlight • River

The single lock of Portiragnes opens onto the Agde reach downstream.

It is a typical area of the landscapes of the Languedoc coastal strip.

Indeed, from this lock, the surface of the canal is at an altitude of only 1 meter above sea level. It runs alongside wetlands of former salt ponds (la grande Maïre), where we find rich fauna and flora (bulls, horses, waders, amphibians, reeds...) and some pine groves.

These places are conducive to the establishment of numerous campsites.

Canal du Midi

Highlight • River

You can cycle almost endlessly along the Canal Du Midi, partly on gravel roads and dirt, which is not recommended after rain, and often on asphalt.

Very nice place with a wonderful view of the beach and the sea - really recommendable for a stop or just as a highlight on the bike tour👍

No excursion that you must have seen, but if you are near you could make a quick stop there to admire the old architecture.
