You'll find numerous charming towns and cities throughout the region as well, from bustling hot spots like Toulouse and Montpellier, to the charming medieval town of Carcassonne.

Montpellier is home to a host of popular beaches where you can sunbathe or swim the day away, while the port of Sete features frenzied water-jousting tournaments. Canal du Midi offers activities in the water and on land, with its boat rides and waterfront trails, respectively.

A bridge to the past—ancient artifacts and historic haunts
Occitanie features spectacular architecture, from the medieval walled fortress of Carcassonne, to the breathtakingly beautiful St-Sernin Cathedral in Toulouse. The small town of Alibi is home to the 13th-century Berbie Palace and the oldest bridge in France, a structure dating back to 1040. The spectacular Roman aqueduct the Pont du Gard sits just outside the town of Nimes, and you can explore it on foot or by kayak. If you're looking for something a bit more laidback, tour a local winery or visit the lush grounds of Montpellier Jardin des Plantes, a historic botanical garden and arboretum.
Seasons change: from sunshine to snowfall
Summers in Occitanie are sunny, dry, and warm, particularly along the coast, where temperatures frequently climb into the 80s. Early fall is often humid with heavy rains. The region also gets hit with lots of rainfall in early spring, when the days are often cloudy and cool. The region heats up in late spring as the temperatures reach the 70s and the sunshine returns. Winter on the plains, valleys, and mountains is frequently chilly, as snow falls at higher elevations and temperatures hover near freezing.
Forests, fields, and… flamingos? Occitanie's wild landscape
Get lost in nature at the Cevennes National Park, a pristine setting dotted with sprawling pastures, dense forests, and towering mountains. Just south of the park is the area known as the Camargue, a unique landscape made up of marshes, lakes, and canals, where pink flamingos, wild horses, and bulls roam free. While the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees dominate the scenery, the gentle, green rolling hills of the Cevennes mountains add a pop of color to Occitanie's setting.
