Ariege, Midi Pyrenees, Holiday Accommodation to Rent

The Department of Ariege nestles in the central Pyreenes, next to Andorra, its highest peaks visible from Toulouse. It is one of the most unspoiled regions of France, whose inhabitants have held fast to their traditions. The countryside is wild but easily accessible. Top grade trout streams rush down forested mountainsides into rivers where kayakers paddle. Waymarked walking trails lead to 3000 metres peaks where isards (chamois), marmots and even bears roam. Cyclists can take in a stage of the Tour de France, mountain bike down tracks or gently pedal in the valleys.

Shopping at the weekly farmers' market in the local town is always a highlight of any visit to France, and especially so in Ariege. Much of the produce is organically grown and the market is the best place to find locally produced cheeses, sausages, honey and preserves as well as specialty breads not usually available in bakeries. In addition to weekly markets, most large towns have a 'foire', or fair, twice a month.

In the summer, there are many large theme festivals, such as the Medieval Fair in Foix, the Classical Music Festival in St Lizier, or Rites in St Girons featuring folk dance groups from many countries.

There are Prehistoric caves at Tarascon and cave drawings at Niaux
