The regional nature park near our Ruffié gîte in Ariège has just published its program of activities and conferences for 2012. You'll find it here in your vacation rental.
In August, there will be slide-show evenings, lectures, exhibitions, meals, walks and evening outings on the following themes:The national raw-milk Pyrenean tomme competition,
water in the mountains, the trumpet rat, bat night, mountain lamb tasting, the bearded vulture, geology, medicinal plants in Biros, the Saint Lizier arts and crafts market, and much more. August 5: cross-border meetings with Catalans in the Haut Salat valleys.
There are still a few "free beaches" left to welcome you to Ruffié.
