There is an excellent official web site for Quillan Town: Quillan Official Site
Quillan, at the top of the Haute Valley of the Aude, close to the mountains, is
a medium sized town 6km from Esperaza and is popular for white water rafting,
canoeing and kayaking on the Aude river (Alet les Bains is another good place
to go for white water sports). There are several hotels in Quillan (3 and 4 star)
but if you want to stay there in the season book well ahead as there is great
pressure on accommodation. There is also a good tourist office and several restaurants
to choose from. The railway line from Carcassonne runs here stopping in Limoux
and Esperaza on the way but the service is limited and many of the trains are
actually buses. Leaving Quillan there is another line which runs to Perpignan
and from there the world is your oyster as they say! Down to Barcelona or up to
Narbonne and the TGV lines across the South of France.
