Secourieu Park (between Auterive and Cintegabelle)

From fountains to boxwood labyrinths, savour this nature break along the banks of the River Ariège, in a 12-hectare park listed as a Historic Monument and Natura 2000. The trees that surround you were planted during the French Revolution, and the small lake with its green colonnades is the perfect place for a romantic getaway… Feeling inspired? It’s normal, this place has inspired poets!

Come and discover a large French-style garden listed as a Historic Monument, and its remarkable decorations bearing witness to the art of garden design in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.

Most of the time you’ll be strolling along shady paths, from pond to fountain, from fountain to statue, in a wooded area with trees over a hundred years old (it’s even home to one of France’s remarkable trees!), in places steeped in historical or literary memories.
