Centre based guided walking, French Pyrenees

Can Llouquette is situated in the Vallespir valley in the French Pyrenean mountains, literally a stones throw from the Spanish border. It is in the region of Languedoc-Roussillon, which is the most southerly region in France, and with sunshine through the summer and winter averaging over 300 days a year, it is also the sunniest!

We are situated in the foothills of the famous Mount Canigou, which dominates the horizon from almost every vantage point. Montferrer, our nearest village is about a mile away. It is small, but has a range of facilities, including a bar, restaurant and shop. The views are exceptional as you travel from the coast towards our base in the mountains.
