The Prat d'Albis
The only watchword for this day for two will be to disconnect!
We leave our cellphone aside and take full advantage of a moment together.
Just 20 minutes from the city center of Foix, the Prat d'Albis welcomes you. This fantastic corner of the mountain at an altitude of 1211m is a unique viewpoint over the Pyrenees, the town of Foix and the surrounding valleys.
This is the spot not to be missed near Foix to take a real breath of fresh air. Explore the different little paths of the Prat and take in the sights!
The lucky ones may even find their feet in the snow in February or March.
The mountain air is hollow!
