SOINS SPA
Si vous cherchez quelque chose d'un peu plus relaxant, étant donné notre emplacement dans les Pyrénées, l'Ariège et l'Aude ont quelques-uns des meilleurs spas que vous trouverez dans le sud de la France. Nos favoris sont Les Bains du Couloubret, Spa Carita Carcassonne et Les Thermes de Rennes les Bains.

SKIING
The closest ski resort to Montcabirol is Ax les Thermes which is less than an hour's drive away. Ax offers a wide choice of blue, red and black tracks in the forest or at altitude. It is also an ideal place for sledding, snow biking, snake sliding and paragliding. This mountain village is incredibly welcoming with its pedestrian streets, its market, its restaurants and its shops which are therefore worth a visit all year round.
