Choose France For A Holiday In The Mountainous South-Western France
The town is in addition from being a mountain-spa-town, and popular for its many warm sulphur springs, also the central starting point for walking holidays in the Pyrenees Mountain.
From this spot you will have access to the ridges of the lower hills, as well as the high peaks, which leads towards glacial lakes & rugged territory. The most recommended areas include: Col de Puymorens, the Col de Pailheres and the Ariege Pyrenees.
The Pyrenees are considerable mountains, and the weather shifts rapidly, so interpret them with respect. Always examine the weather forecasts before you go out and make sure you are well prepared and supplied. Good walking shoes or hiking boots is important. If you aren't familiar with mountain walking, do yourself and the local rescue team a favor: get an expert guide!
Your wonderful meeting with nature could turn into a horror story unless you do.
Roaming about the Pyrenees by foot is fulfilling for bird-watchers who are likely to see vultures & eagles, and if plants are your thing, you can discover more than 3000 species of vegetation.
Apart from walking in intoxicating environments the area of Ax-les-Thermes has a lot more to contribute with . Being very close to Andorra - crossing the border for shopping or a visit to the casino is a possibility. So is visiting the chateau at Montsegur about 40km aside.
Once you are staying in Ax-les-Thermes it is in effect an obligation to dip your body in the Bassin des Ladres, the hot sulphurous water pool, which is said to have restorative powers.
Getting to Ax-les-Thermes can take place by road or train. The railway station is on avenue Delcasse & you can get nonstop night train from Paris. The nearest airports are Toulouse Blagnac and Carcassonne.
Just an advice: walking holidays in France are addictive! When you have done it on one occasion - you will probably long to return as quickly as possible. Most visitors do.
