Take your time to explore the wild landscapes of this beautiful circuit and try to imagine what the area looked like without all this scrubland! The landscape is a very good indicator of human activity, it reflects the use of the environment by humans and evolves according to their needs. From prehistory to today, from gathering to viticulture, the causses (limestone plateaus) have always been a place of significant human activity. With viticulture taking precedence over pastoralism, they are currently covered with dense scrub vegetation composed of kermes oaks, rockroses, boxwood, scorpion senna, pistachios... with in the more open areas, irises, asphodels, orchids, and aphyllantes… In the middle of the last century, sheep herds still existed in Minervois and roamed its spaces by notably using stone-walled paths still visible.

• Respect the trail routes to limit trampling of vegetation and erosion. • Learn to know and respect the fauna and flora, especially in sensitive areas. • Leave no trace of our passage, no waste, and carry it to the next bin. • Do not light fires in nature. • Do not damage crops and plantations. • Always remember to close gates and barriers behind us. • Keep dogs on a leash; they could inadvertently cause damage or become victims of accidents. • Do not drink stream water; its apparent clarity does not necessarily mean it is potable. • Check with municipalities during hunting seasons. Some routes may be dangerous. • Be informed about access regulations to nature reserves and Natura 2000 zones (dogs, use of sound devices, and plant picking may be prohibited in some cases).
