Midi-Pyrénées


With the mountains of the Massif Central at its head and the Pyrénées at its feet, the regions of Roussillon to the east and Aquitaine to the west, Midi-Pyrénées sprawls over 17,500 square miles of southern France and is the largest of its 22 regions. Roughly two-thirds the size of Vermont, this region offers a mix of 10,000-foot mountains, peaceful countryside and hospitable cities right on the doorstep of Spain.
