Things to do in Midi-Pyrénées, Occitanie: The Best Natural History Museums

December 28, 2021 Osvaldo Hartline

Stretching from the wooded Dordogne to the towering peaks of the Pyrenees, this vast region is a popular winter sports destination, but one without the hordes that besiege the Alps. Spring's melted snows lure kayakers and rafting enthusiasts. In summer, amateur and advanced hikers take to the hills.
