The Canal du Midi is one of the oldest canals of Europe still in operation, today a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The channel is a work of art by Pierre Paul Riquet in the reign of Louis XIV
 
Once used for transporting goods, today is a relaxing place for boaters and hikers. Ideal for hiking or cycling, the banks of the canal provide shady places walks punctuated with locks, bridges, aqueducts and canal bridges.
