    • The Regional Natural Park of the Ariège Pyrenees aims to protect the ecosystem of the Ariège mountains . This encompasses its typical landscapes of the Pyrenees , through the management of habitat and human activities, in order to ensure the development of its specific fauna and flora. The park has a pedagogical and educational mission. It therefore organizes events and workshops in the park houses , but also guided outings and sports or leisure activities, to help you discover all the facets of this environment.

    The Pyrenees massif is home to several remarkable natural parks, each with its own specificities: * Pyrenees National Park: * It extends for 100 kilometers along the Spanish border, between the Aspe and Aure valleys. * It covers two departments (Pyrénées-Atlantiques and Hautes-Pyrénées) and two regions (Nouvelle-Aquitaine and Occitanie). * It is renowned for its high mountain landscapes, its lakes, its fauna (chais, bears, vultures) and its flora. * You will find a wealth of information on the trails, regulations, etc. on the official website of the Pyrenees National Park. * Catalan Pyrenees Regional Natural Park: * Located in the Pyrénées-Orientales, it offers a great diversity of landscapes, from valleys to peaks. * It is known for its cultural heritage and mountain villages. * The Catalan Pyrenees regional natural park is the first French regional natural park on the Pyrenees massif. * Ariège Pyrenees regional natural park: * It covers a large part of the Ariège department. * It offers varied landscapes, from the foothills to the high mountains. * It is rich in natural and cultural heritage, with prehistoric caves and typical villages. * The Pyrénées Ariégeoises regional natural park is located in the Pyrenees massif. These parks offer many possibilities for hiking, outdoor activities and nature discoveries for me like the Pilat Notional Park in this nature...the pleasure of visiting both and seeing nature how it looks between the two despite the kilometers
