The castles of Pays Cathare (Cathar Country) are located in Aude and Ariège, in France. These architectural treasures are reminders of Catharism (a medieval Christian movement), which left its mark on this region. If you want to discover a few relics of the Cathar castles, the towns of Tuchan and Puyvert in Aude have four campsites. In Ariège, a three-star campsite open all year round awaits you in Foix.
