The Ancient Languedoc Province of France

May 10-17 2025

Our favourite TaG Trip. The founders raced in this region in the south of France for years amd we have loved coming back as cycling tourists to properly explore. There is vast diversity in terrain, and an abundance of Historical Landmarks

Spring in the South of France

Hosted by TaG Coach

This trip explores a variety of routes based around the small town of Limoux, France where the culture is true to its origin.

Rides incorporate 4 unique types of terrain. Days that take in rugged gorges and rivers gushing through the rock,climbing high up into the Pyrenees to famous peaks. Rolling through vineyards,riding out to the Mediterranean beaches and past oceans of sunflower fields. Limoux is a regular stage start in the Tour de France a testament to the incredible riding in the Aude region. Guided by a long time friend of cycling,we will explore the area with locals knowledge taking us always on the least travelled and quietest routes.

There are only 2 overnight stops. Of the weeks adventure we will stay in Limoux at Hotel Le Monastère for 5 nights and 2 nights nestled in the tiny village of Bugarach high in the Pyrenees, at Le Presbytère where spectacular meals are provided including a traditional roast feast.

This is one of the best kept secret zones for riding in France. Only 100km from the city of Toulouse, 10 km from the ancient town of Carcassonne and 2 1/2 hrs from Barcelona, Spain.
