You could also take in the waters in the spa town of Bagnères-de-Luchon. If you are keen to take in historical sites in Midi-Pyrenees, Montségur is a good place to start. Perched on a mountain top, Montségur castle is a fortification dating from Cathar times. Cordes-sur-Ciel is another great place for a vist if you are interested in the region's history. Albi, the historical capital of the Tarn department, is also a fascinating glimpse into an older world. Besides the numerous rivers and plains, the mountains are perfect for hiking and exploring. Stargazers and mountain climbers alike might want to see the observatory at the Pic du Midi, but if you are after something equally awe-inspiring, head to the far north of the region, where you will find the beautiful town of Rocamadour.
