Discover Ariège differently with our unusual tour

For this new escapade of discovery, we take you to the famous town of Foix.

To make the most of the day, we recommend getting up at dawn and being in a good mood…

As the journey from the campsite takes around 1 hour, the ideal time to leave is around 8.30 – 9.00 am.

The Groundhog’s reminder:

Bring a pair of sneakers
A sweater (yes, I know it’s summer, but where we’re going a little wool won’t go amiss)
Picnic

For an early-morning appetizer, head for the Labouiche underground river.

For a voyage to the center of the earth that Jules Verne would not have denied…

For the rest of the program, we decided to go back in time and immerse ourselves in the atmosphere and life of a Pyrenean village in 1900…

Welcome to Forges de Pyrène, the forgotten village!
Before beginning your exploration of the Forges de Pyrène, take advantage of the picnic area to recover from your morning’s excitement.

Let’s go on an incredible adventure in the last century…
If you’re curious to know how people lived in the past, this immersive tour will be very instructive.
Stroll through the village streets and meet the artisans. They’ll share their passion with you. Here, you can watch these artists practise their art, and hear them speak movingly about it.
Yes, it’s always a wonderful experience to see a blacksmith, basket-maker, master glassmaker or goldsmith share their unique skills with us.

In this theme park, you won’t have time to get bored. Between the various interactive activities, the visit to the museum of old trades and the scenography, half a day won’t be too much to do the whole thing.
