Pic de Nore Summit

Highlight • Summit

We like to compare, the Pic de Nore is a small Ventoux, its climbs from Mazamet or Villeneuve-Minervois are not as steep as that of the Ventoux from Bédoin but they still have to be earned. They are 17 and 22 km respectively, have an average gradient of 5.5% and 4.56%, with a maximum gradient of 11.8% and 10%.
For my part, I chose to join Pradelles-Cabardès via the forests from Limousis, passing in particular the Soulanes de Nore, I was treated to some good slopes with a double-digit percentage ...
Two legends would explain its name: in the first it is the fairy Nore who, annoyed by the damage caused to the crops by the Cers wind, would have planted her pike in the ground there, and as if by magic the rocks would have accumulated around to form the Pique de Nore. In the second, the wind of Cers is still blamed for its damage to human crops, not only there, and it is Nore, Bug and Arach who went to complain to Jupiter. Jupiter does not like to be disturbed, he transformed Nore into a mountain and Bug and Arach into the summit of Bugarach ...

The Pradelles-Cabardès icehouses[1] are old icehouses consisting of semi-buried pits built in the 19th century. They were used for the production and storage of blocks of ice for sale. (Wikipedia)

Roman road

Highlight • Structure

This superb trail is of both historical and recreational interest. This old Roman road, also called the salt road, shows traces of the passage of carts. These are also indicated.
Attention, because the ground, very smooth, maybe slippery in certain places.
