Great article. I sailed on the canal du Midi for a day..It was fantastic, and we stopped at the same restaurant you did. Et on mange bien le long du canal!
We cycled the Canal over five days five years ago when I’d just turned 70. We are fit leisure cyclists and this wasn’t easy. Parts were two feet deep in mud after previous heavy rain and others the path was 6” wide with grass growing way over our heads. We were told it normally takes 7 days but we only had 5 so it wasn’t a relaxing sightseeing trip but we had a fabulous time, it is beautiful and well worth the effort. We hired bikes from Béziers planning in taking the train to Toulouse but if course there was a rail strike in so the hire company delivered them for us. We stayed in hotels on the way and ate some great food. Highly recommended. Looking forward to other episodes
