The Corbières is one of the wildest areas of France with one of the lowest population densities. It is picturesque with wine growing areas alternating with garigue and mountainous countryside. It is located mainly in the Aude département and partly in the Pyrénées-Orientales département. The River Aude borders the Corbières to the west and north. To the south is the River Agly and to the east the the Mediterranean Sea. The name Corbières comes from "cor" a pre-Celtic word meaning "rock" and "berre" from the River Berre which runs through Durban. The eastern part of the Corbières with its Etangs, borders the the Mediterranean Sea and is called the Corbières maritimes. It has its own distinctive climate and characteristic vegetation known as thermomediterranean vegetation...

Vin de Pays d’Oc,
Vin de Pays de l’Aude |
| |
Vin de Pays means 'country wine' to the French, but to outsiders it can mean New World with a French accent. These are the wines which the French authorities unreservedly allow to be labelled with the grape variety from which they were made. It is difficult to over-estimate the importance of this large and growing category of wines for the future of the French wine trade. The French themselves may have tended to see any Vin de Pays as distinctly inferior to any appellation contrôlée wine, whereas many of their customers abroad see the better Vins de Pays as good-value, user-friendly, sometimes high-quality non-conformist emissaries from the world's most revered wine producer....

Gouleyrous gorges are the gorges north of Tautavel and is accessed by taking Highway Vingrau and turning north (indicated). They are the distinction of being overlooked by the Arago Cave, the famous cave where they found the skeletal remains of the oldest European (450,000 years). The gorge was carved by the Verdouble, which takes its birth in the Aude and passes Tautavel before joining Agly. They have a length of about a hundred meters and dominates the Verdouble at least 50m. The river has shaped the rocks so impressive, they are eroded, sometimes hollow, without sharp edges. The Verdouble flows constantly running up against a bank to the other, forming small eddies and gives "pots", the round hollows in stones larger or smaller. The cliffs are vertical, they serve as support for climbers in the region. This spot is part of climbing a essemble site of the same kind and which is designated under the generic name of " Cliffs of Vingrau ", although some of these sites are not in this village. Few shallow caves were dug into the cliff, they are only accessible by climbing precisely....
