Discover Cébazan along marked trails, among its stone heritage and through its winegrowing character. The “Le Dolmen” circular trail passes the Dolmen de Montmajou, which is located at a viewpoint overlooking the Cébazan plain. Other sights include Église Saint-Martin, the ruins of Château de Saint-Bauléry and Col de Fontjun. Visitors can choose different ways to explore the village: a hike, historical details or the landscape of a winegrowing village.

Hiking: Le Dolmen and Other Trails

The “Le Dolmen” hike is an easy 7.7-kilometre circular trail, with a stated duration of 2 hours and 30 minutes. It crosses the Lirou at a ford and passes the Dolmen de Montmajou. The dolmen is located at a viewpoint overlooking the Cébazan plain. The river crossing, dolmen and landscape offer clear points of reference when planning the hike. The starting point is less than a ten-minute walk from the “CEBAZAN – COOPERATIVE” bus stop. If you plan to travel by bus, check the timetable; you should also check local conditions before setting off.

Several marked trails in Cébazan offer ways to explore its heritage and landscape. These include the “Saint-Bauléry” and “Le Dolmen” circular trails. You can plan your outing around hiking while also taking in different cultural and landscape themes, without limiting every route to the same sights.

Church, Cabinet and Château

Église Saint-Martin preserves several stone features from the Middle Ages. There is also a distinctive detail in the sacristy: a small carved wooden cabinet once used to store liturgical vessels. Its sculpted back panel is in the Art Deco style. The cabinet’s purpose, material and design make it a tangible counterpart to the church’s medieval stone features.

Château de Saint-Bauléry stands in ruins on a hill overlooking the landscape. The ruins are accessible on a hike; conditions along the route may vary. The château included a former chapel dedicated to Saint Baudille, which is mentioned as early as 1102. The ruins and the chapel’s early historical record give the site a clear historical connection, while its hilltop location shapes its setting.

Views and Winegrowing

Col de Fontjun lies at an altitude of 260 metres. From there, views take in vineyards, surrounding villages and the ridges of the Caroux. These vistas show different aspects of the area: vineyards, settled landscapes and the contours of the Caroux. The viewpoint adds another landscape focus to the hiking trails.

Cébazan is a winegrowing village in the Saint-Chinian appellation, with a cooperative winery and wine producers. The Route des Vins du Canal du Midi à Saint-Chinian also passes through Cébazan, a winegrowing village with red stone. This gives you another way to understand the village, alongside its hiking and cultural attractions: through its winegrowing character. Check the current route directions before setting off.
