15 days in Perpignan Itinerary

Perpignan is a city, a commune, and the capital of the Pyrénées-Orientales department in southern France. You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at La Voie Verte de L'Agly and Le Sentier Sous-Marin de Cerbere-Banyuls. Change things up with these side-trips from Perpignan: Gruissan (Le Salin de Gruissan & Notre-Dame-des-Auzils), Gorges d'Heric (in Mons) and Plage de VALRAS (in Valras-Plage). There's much more to do: head outdoors with Gorges de Caranca, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Saint-Michel-de-Cuxa, tour the pleasant surroundings at La Franqui Beach, and let the river carry you with a rafting and tubing tour.
