Grotte du Mas-d'Azil

Highlight • Cave

In this magnificent prehistoric cave, crossed in its entirety by both the Arize river and a road, prehistoric portable art dating from the Azilian was discovered. The most famous of his sculptures is undoubtedly the spear-thrower called the bird fawn.

In the middle of the cave, a museum opens its doors to visitors. Come and learn a little more about this period of the Upper Palaeolithic.

Be careful when crossing the cavity. A good lamp is mandatory, because some parts are very dark and the pavement on the side can be treacherous.

Couserans region

Highlight • Natural Monument

Couserans is a Gascon country of mountains, hills, meadows, lakes, waterfalls and forests which is entirely part of the Pyrénées Ariégeoises Regional Natural Park.

Among its 18 valleys located at the foot of the majestic Mount Valier, some remained landlocked until the recent past, which allowed them to maintain their own identity, such as the Bethmale valley.

At the beginning of the 20th century, it was an overpopulated country whose small agricultural plots did not allow families to live, which is why the inhabitants had to show a lot of imagination to find survival activities. This is how some became “bear handlers”, peddlers of vanilla, fake stone, ice. Others became itinerant “raw distillers” or gold prospectors.

Nice winding road through the forest

Highlight • Other

Very pretty winding road through the forest. I took it in the direction of descent, very technical descent, narrow road, series of turns, difficult to gain speed.
