These gorges, steeped in history and located at Arles-sur-Tech, are the narrowest in the world, with a width of less than 80 cm.

The narrowest gorges in the world, with passages less than 80 cm wide, they frightened the local population, who were convinced that they were inhabited by bruixes (witches). Legends merge with history, that of the Trabucayres, the highwaymen who plagued the region around 1840. This canyon, 1,700 m long and 200 m deep, is so narrow in places that daylight never reaches the bottom, and is home to the Simiots, hideous creatures straight out of children's fairy tales. Magnificent!

un parcours, avec équipement de protection, dans une sorte de canyon très étroit à certains endroits, sécurisé et plus agréable quand il fait chaud. Intéressant!

Beautiful walk on a beautiful site, accessible to all. To find a bit of freshness in summer, very well.
we visited the gorges of crazy during the heat of summer. we were surprised by the freshness of this place. it is necessary to helmets to protect it is funny. however not stroller because it is quite narrow. you can have breaks and sit .c' is a beautiful place. you should expect after all.
there I never go but I pass in front of the daily. I hope that one day, I will finally decide because so that it is said that is worth the detour. bring wool because it cold.
