THE
FENOUILLEDES
Land of reputed wines (Maury), the
Fenouillèdes offer an everchanging
scenery of endlessly outstretching
vineyards, rocks, plateaux and gorges
("Les Gorges de Galamus") with a
particular natural charm. Dolmens, menhirs
and engraved rocks along with ancient
chapels and small churches that are
splendours of roman art testify of age-old
human presence in these parts. Rambling,
rock-climbing, festivals, castles of the
Cathares (Quéribus, Peyrepertuse),
Tautavel and its Prehistoric Museum near
by the famous grotto of Arago where the
remains of the eldest european (450 000
years old) were found, give the
Fenouillèdes its unrivalled
personal style.
