Hiking - The Béal Neuf: from mountain stream to canal

A themed path running gently along the canal.

This trail is a little gem, with its canal-hugging path along the water's edge. The high point is the point at which the canal splits from the Eychauda mountain stream. Highly enlightening information panels will capture the interest of young and old alike.

Access to the canal is prohibited for herds or flocks of animals and all vehicles (motorised or otherwise).

There is a second section along the Béal Neuf canal: “Les canaux et les hommes, une histoire emblématique”(Canals and mankind, an iconic history). The starting point is 1 kilometre down from the starting point of the first path, where the canal leaves the road at the winding section. 

Check weather conditions before setting off.
