What to Expect During Your Glamping Holiday in the Midi-Pyrénées
The Midi-Pyrénées, also known as the Midi-Pyrenees, together with Languedoc-Roussillon form the region of Occitanie in southern France. The area includes eight departments: Ariège, Aveyron, Haute-Garonne, Gers, Lot, Haute-Pyrénées, Tarn and Tarn-et-Garonne. From popular tourist attractions to the peace and quiet of untouched nature – you’ll find it all in the Midi-Pyrénées.
Discover the medieval heritage of this beautiful province in southern France. The region is home to castles, fortresses, and remnants of ancient walled towns that recall the crusades against the Cathars. You’ll also find historic pilgrimage routes running through the departments, leading all the way to Santiago de Compostela in Spain.
