Vineyard views, rough steep access
D7, 66220, Saint-Paul-de-Fenouillet
Been here?
A quiet wild spot about 1 km from the Gorges de Galamus, offering beautiful views over the surrounding vineyards and mountains. The ground is not always level, and some parking areas require levelling blocks. Access is steep or rough in places and is suitable mainly for 4x4 vehicles or small, raised vehicles. The location can be exposed to wind, although some areas are sheltered.

We settled in for one night at the upper spot. Very windy, lovely view in the evening, cloudy in the morning. Short walks can be taken among the surrounding vineyards.
Very beautiful little spot with a view of a snow-covered mountain if you walk down the path.
Very beautiful spot, quiet with a lovely view. Easily accessible by 4x4.
A great spot, very peaceful and set back from the road. The track is accessible only by 4x4 or a small vehicle.
Magnificent spot. Not completely level, but with some stones under the tyres it is fine. Super quiet. There is a very tame fox in the area, probably fed by someone previously; it was caught gnawing on a bicycle-rack strap. Do not leave anything outside. And do not feed the fox—it encourages them to get too close to humans, which is potentially dangerous for them, and they become destructive.
Great spot! Sheltered from the wind, peaceful and quiet, with a lovely view. The first 50 metres to get there are a little steep.
We were in the first spot on the right. Very pleasant, but levelling blocks are needed. The wind picked up during the night, so it was a little exposed, but the view was beautiful!
Beautiful view, sheltered from the west wind. Access is not too complicated with a 4x4 or a raised vehicle. Parking is not too steep. In short, it’s a lovely place!
Quite rough and steep access for 30 m. Several spots available with a magnificent view and absolute peace and quiet.
Just perfect. Very very quiet. Beautiful scenery.
Perfect. Like the other comments regarding the rest. Quite a lot of paper on the ground. Please invest in a small gardening shovel and bury your waste.
Perfect!!!! Very good spot… an L2 van gets through easily.
Superb spot at the foot of the Gorges de Galamus. Access is a little tricky, but the reward comes after a few dozen metres! However, when arriving from Saint-Paul, beware: the GPS makes you take the first road on the right. Continue along the road and take the next one, which will save you a somewhat chaotic detour through the vineyards. An L2 van gets through, but not a motorhome or a vehicle that is too low.
