To walk in the market is to take a leap into what is most authentic and sincere in a territory. We meet the inhabitants of the surrounding towns and villages, local producers and many craftsmen. True reflections of the soul of the valleys, the markets make it possible to promote short circuits and support local crafts. Whether it is to stroll, go to the market or stock up on local specialties to bring back as a souvenir, let yourself be seduced by the country and producer markets.

Zoom on …
the Argelès-Gazost market
A 700-year-old tradition, every Tuesday morning, local producers and artisans gather in the upper town of Argelès-Gazost. During this weekly market, you can find the best of regional products: jams, mountain honey, seasonal vegetables and fruits, local charcuterie and meats, pies from the Pyrenees, local cheeses...
From stall to stall, stroll through this market and let yourself be intoxicated... Taste the typical cheeses of the Pyrenees, listen to the cutler who sharpens the blades of his artisanal knives, smell the sweet smell of the cake on the spit which cooks on the wood fire... An experience that awakens the senses!
