The pretty village of Eus sits atop a small hill on the side of the Têt Valley, looking out across pink flowered peach orchards and commanding a magnificent view of the imposing Canigou Mountain. In the valley below lies the market town of Prades, sleepy for most of the year but coming to life in August with the music of the Pablo Casals Festival. In the surrounding area, opportunities for an active vacation or a relaxing escape abound; from the castle-strewn history of the region (Villefranche/Castelnou) or the art-culture of Ceret and Figueres (Picasso/Dali), to the beaches and picturesque fishing villages of the Mediterranean coast (Argeles/Coulloire) or the pursuit of adventure in the rugged Pyrenean mountains. Alternatively, indulge in therapeutic relaxation and resuscitation at the many sites of natural thermal springs (Molitg/Vernet les Bains). In the Winter months, take your skiis up to the high slopes (Les Angles/Font Romeu), less than an hour away. Be inspired, it's all here!
