Parc Naturel Régional du Haut Languedoc
France > Languedoc > Southern > Parc Naturel
Embracing Mont Caroux in the east and the Montagne Noire in the west, the Parc Naturel Régional du Haut Languedoc is the southernmost extension of the Massif Central. The west, above Castres and Mazamet, is Atlantic in feel and climate, with deciduous forests and lush valleys, while the east is dry, craggy and calcareous. Except in high summer you can have it almost to yourself. Buses serve the Orb valley and cross the centre of the park to La Salvetat and Lacaune, but you really need transport of your own to make the most of it.
