Following lunch, we continued our trek south into the more western part of Cathar country. We were heading to the town of Rennes le Chateau, the home of the priest Berenger Saunier, whose discovery of something in the late 19th century led him to live the life of nobility for the next 20 years. There are hordes of books written about this matter, involving the Knights Templar and Priory of Sion and the blood line of Jesus, but wherever the truth lies, this is quite a remarkable place to visit. The views of the Pyrenee foothills and surrounding plains from here are breathtaking.
