The programme for the weekend

A fun moment they certainly won’t forget in a hurry. On Saturday morning, join the cows in the former cattle market before following them up to their summer pastures by choosing one of the 2 different hikes.

 

The Fête de l’Estive is also a market with local producers, the perfect opportunity to taste regional produce, enjoy folk entertainment and even a tango festival. You’d like to take part? Great! Don’t forget to sign up for the farm visit or the hikes. You’re going to love it!
