Over two hundred and forty kilometers long, about sixty sluices, tens of thousands of trees along the banks... and a classification as a World Heritage Site ! Here are some impressive facts about the canal you are about to navigate on. Our panoramic promenade boats, Lou Gabaret and Helios , are specially designed to travel on this waterway, at six kilometers per hour.
Carcassone Cruises (labeled Qualité Sud de France and Qualité Tourisme), uses two boats offering panoramic views : Lou Gabaret and Helios. Departing from the Port de Carcassonne, you will have the choice between five different itineraries to discover the Canal du Midi , along its hauling path and across its numerous sluices. The trips take from 1h30 to 2h45, according to the one you may choose. Two to eight departures a day are scheduled, depending on the season. For easy access, you will be boarding right next to the Carcassonne SNCF train station.. Each lunchbreak in July and August is the opportunity for a romantic gateway, with a country set picnic in the jardin de Foucaud, located on the bank of the Canal du Midi.
