Trekking - Camí dels Bons Homes

Cross-border route of between 190 - 205 km that goes from the Sanctuary of Queralt (Berga - Catalonia) to the Castle of Montsegur (Ariege - France) along the roads where the last Cathars of the Crusade and Inquisition promoted by the Catholic Church of Rome, with the help of the King of France, went into exile. This route allows you to follow the traces of Catharism while crossing mountains and valleys of great scenic beauty. It is also a good combination of adventure, history, archaeology, gastronomy.

Difficulty:
Medium/high level of difficulty, where a good physical condition will be necessary to be able to do long routes with high difference in altitude (20 km and 1000 m of positive difference in altitude a day).

Tour:
The tour will take place over 9-10 days, with different stages that we will adapt to each group. It can also be done in stages on different days (weekends, long weekends...). Contact me in the Yakki chat for more details.

Recommendations:
Next, we will make a series of recommendations and a list of individual material that each participant will have to carry. If you have any doubt once you have read the list, you can contact us in the chat of Yakki.
