Our first stop is Mirepoix, a beautiful medieval village dating from the 10th century. The large central square is flanked by a magnificent, covered arcade, created by half-timbered houses supported on wooden pillars.

We then drive to the Château de Montségur, where the last stake of the Crusade against the Cathars occurred in the 13th century.

We then spend a relaxing lunch, enjoying the local cuisine.

From atop its impressive rock, the castle dominates the city of Foix, which is the capital of the department of Ariège. In centuries past it controlled access to the high Ariège river valley and watched over the countryside, protected by unbreachable walls. Today an elaborate museum inside traces the history of this emblematic edifice. This visit is with an audio guide.
