SPECIAL FEATURES

The town of “Seix” may bring a slight smile to your face, its pronounced Saix but what a fantastic place to live. You can even buy the T shirt from the local shop. The main river passes through the town and every year in May the town holds a big rafting and kayak festival over three days.

Historically an important area in the Ariege Pyrenees for the resistance movement during the second world war.
