  • Pyrénées Ariégeoises site within 45 minutes of Andorra
  • Within walking distance of the spa town of Ax-les-Thermes
  • Heated seasonal swimming pool and a wine cellar/restaurant
Just Pyrenees perfection… Holidaymakers of all tastes will be fully tended to at the peaceful, friendly and excellently set site of Camping Le Malazéou, 700 metres above sea level in the Ariège department, and with activities and sightseeing to keep you occupied for months within day-trip distance. For example. You can stroll or pedal straight from the site along a scenic riverside path to reach the nearby town of Ax-les-Thermes, worth an amble in itself but also a spot where you can hail a cable car to the Ax 3 Domaines ski resort, tackle the Stage 14 route of the 2010 Tour de France, or sink into 60 or so thermal springs. But! There's a mighty amount on this six-hectare site too – which could be mighty handy if you've exhausted your adventurous self skiing, cycling, hiking or sightseeing. If you've still got energy left, head to the heated outdoor pool (open in the summer months). The site also has a snack bar with terrace for eats, drinks, concerts and shows, and hosts regular quiz nights and tournaments.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: - Good location on the riverside and a pleasant 1km walk up to the town. - Good restaurant on site - Clean and effective shared toilet/cleaning facilities

Disliked: - Access to pool was limited some days based on the weather - they do seem a bit overzealous if there is a few clouds in the area and they perceive their to be a "storm risk" which therefore closes the pool even on sunny days! - I'd recommend ensuring you get a position a reasonable distance from the central restaurant/services block due to late night music and entertainment going on if you like an early night's sleep!

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Dat we weg gingen

Disliked: Dat we ons geld niet terug kregen toen we na twee slapeloze nachten vertrokken. We konden eerst niet slapen van de weg die langs te tent liep, en toen niet van de muziek die tot na 12 uur over heel de camping denderde. Bleek een Dj die voor heen handje vol mensen die niet dansten op trad.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Very nice location .felt very efficient well run site .nice walk into ax. Staff were very good.restaurant was super brilliant food and loads of activities facilities were clean

Disliked: Washing and toilet facilities were minimal considering the number of campers in tents. Swimming pool was not big enough for the size of the site, and did not have a zone which allowed for child-free swimming.

2 bedroom static caravan (comfort, five person)

Liked: Muy bien situado, un lugar precioso con excursiones espectaculares cerca. Bue restaurante si te gusta la carne.

Disliked: Lo único negativo es que si no duermes muy profundo, muchos de los bungalows están cerca del río que es bastate ruidoso.

Local attractions

Orlu, seven kilometres away, is home to the fab House of Wolves animal park, as well as active adventures paintballing, canyoning and trying out the routes of the local treetop adventure park. The town's also the starting point of the Orlu National Reserve, where you should be able to spot the likes of marmots, bearded vultures and golden eagles among these high mountains. Several marked walking trails are around the reserve; pick up info at its office back in Ax-les-Thermes. For fab buildings as well as fab scenery, drive 25 minutes to Château de Lordat, one of the biggest and oldest feudal castles of the County of Foix. And for another castle, the famed Château de Foix – the main structure of the Cathar lot – is set scenically above Foix town about 50 minutes away. This part of south-west France is also famed for its vast caves and their prehistoric art: Lombrives cave, the biggest in Europe, is 25 minutes away for cavernous tours, and the Palaeolithic paintings of Niaux are within half an hour, just south of Foix.
