We went inland to hike today, to the
Oppidum d'Ensérune. According to our hike leader, it is a hike of "8.5 km – 2-1/2 hours, starting at 24m altitude, rising to 96m, for a total rise in terrain of 137m."
And
"This walk takes us around one of the oldest, most strategic places of the Roman Empire in our region – l’Oppidum d’Enserune."
While we didn't visit the archeological area, we had a nice easy hike around the hilltop surrounded by vines and fields

Where we were (including the café for hot chocolate after)
Note: inland even just this little bit was significantly colder, windier, and cloudier than our beloved Sète...
