Between nature, culture and international events, Ariège is a perfect destination for travelers looking for authenticity. Here are two highlights we’d love to share with you !

👉 Ariège : a favourite destination
Tucked between mountains and valleys, Ariège is a gem still untouched by mass tourism. Outdoor activities, medieval heritage, local gastronomy, and passionate artisans—there are many reasons to fall in love with this region. Find out why Ariège was selected as a “coup de cœur” destination by liO and let yourself be charmed by its richness and simplicity.

👉 Foix to host the 2025 Canoe-Kayak World Championships
From July 1st to 6th, 2025, the town of Foix will come alive with the Under 23 and Junior Canoe-Kayak Slalom World Championships. Over 50 countries will be represented—don’t miss this major international event ! Come cheer on the athletes along the Ariège River and enjoy a lively sporting atmosphere in the heart of the Pyrenees.
