Campsas: Vineyard Trails and Wineries

In Campsas, two named trails run through the vineyards; there are also several wineries offering wine and individual experiences. When planning a stay, you can consider different questions: Which route length fits into your day, are you interested in an experience in a wine cellar, or would you like to discover the wines of a particular winery? The specific offerings also vary according to duration, season, weather conditions, or prior arrangement. These details help you plan activities to suit your travel itinerary.

Vineyard Trails in Campsas

The Tour de vigne is a 6 km circular trail through the vineyards of Campsas. The Sentier de la Négrette is an 11 km walking trail, also through the town’s vineyards. They therefore differ by five kilometers; in addition, only the Tour de vigne is explicitly described as a circular trail. Route length and trail type provide two concrete points of comparison when choosing.

Experiences and Visits

Château Boujac in Campsas is part of the AOP Fronton and offers oenological and sensory discoveries through a range of activities. One specific offering is a 45-minute escape game in the wine cellar for two to eight people. Wine tasting is included; the price is 25 euros per person. The escape game is offered from May to September. If this experience is important to your travel plans, take note of the stated seasonal window and check availability before you arrive.

Château Bouissel farms 20 hectares organically on the highest land in the Fronton area, on a unique gravel-soil terroir. Red, rosé, and white wines are available by the barrel or in bottles. When the weather is good, walks through the vineyards are possible, but only by prior arrangement. For a walk, you should therefore take both the weather and the need for an arrangement into account, and check availability before you arrive.

Château Font-Blanque in Campsas is also part of the AOP Fronton. A description updated in 2024 notes that its wines are predominantly reds based on the Négrette grape variety, along with rosé and white wines made from other grape varieties. Visits are by prior arrangement only. If you would like to visit the winery, arrange your visit in advance.

Check the dates in advance for the offerings you would like to visit.
