Nature and Trails
The PR 13 hiking trail follows the route of the procession of the Virgin from La Cabanasse to the Col de La Perche. This procession takes place every year on 15 August. PR 14 – Train Jaune bien-être leads to the hot springs of St Thomas; the return route goes via Fontpédrouse and the Train Jaune station to La Cabanasse.
La Cabanasse is listed as both the starting point and destination of the GRP Tour de Cerdagne long-distance hiking trail. The route is considered a three-day, 47-kilometre trail between the Train Jaune stations of Bourg-Madame and Col de La Perche. The VTT-13 route partly follows a balcony trail through the three villages of La Cabanasse, Saint-Pierre-dels-Forcats and Mont-Louis in the Haut Conflent.
