Located about thirty minutes from Perpignan , the Orgues d'Ille-sur-Têt site is a true mineral gem, classified as a protected site . Here you are, in a setting worthy of desert landscapes, almost lunar.
If you are looking for an original idea for a walk, come and discover the Organs of Ille-sur-Têt ! These geological curiosities seem to come straight from another planet, but they are actually formations of sand and clay that erosion has shaped over time.
Nestled in lush greenery, the Orgues site offers exploration of every nook and cranny of these fairy chimneys, some ten meters high!
Don't hesitate to get lost in the small paths laid out in a labyrinth, a good way to appreciate all the beauty of this very special place... Even if the columns seem majestic, they are very fragile and subject to the whims of the weather: it is therefore not possible to climb them but you can always immortalize them with your camera!
In the middle of an environment that has been built over millions of years, you will be amazed by the wonders of nature... Between the clay reliefs and colored sands of the Orgues d'Ille-sur-Têt , your imagination will be stimulated by this natural masterpiece!
If you're with your family, have fun guessing animal shapes or faces carved into the rock!
During the guided tour, don't be surprised if you hear stories of elves or fairies, because everything here invites mystery and contemplation of the Organs of Ille-sur-Têt...
Today we head to Riberal and more precisely to the village of Ille-sur-Têt, which is about 15 minutes west of Perpignan.
To give you an idea of the area, the Riberal corresponds to the Têt valley, bordered to the north by the Força Réal viewpoint and to the south by the Aspres sector.
On the day's program, wild asparagus picking and a visit to the Organs, for a stroll in a spectacular environment.
